Changes in franchise teams for the Indian Premier League 2024 have begun. Former Team India opener Gautam Gambhir has returned to the Kolkata Knight Riders franchise. The franchise has added him as a mentor for IPL 2024. KKR CEO Venky Mysore has confirmed this on Wednesday. Gautam Gambhir will now work with Kolkata coach Chandrakant Pandit on strategies to make the team a winner.
Under the captaincy of Gautam Gambhir, KKR won the IPL title in 2012 and 2014. Under Gambhir, the KKR team has qualified for the playoffs 5 times. At the same time, in the Indian Premier League 2023, Gautam Gambhir played the role of mentor in Lucknow Super Giants.
On his return home, Gambhir said that he is not an emotional person and many things cannot shake him. But, it is a different matter that we are returning to the same place from where we started. That's why the throat is choked and the heart is on fire. He is once again thinking about the purple-gold jersey. He said that he is returning not only to KKR but also to the City of Joy. I'm hungry... I'm number 23... Aami KKR.
