Gautam Gambhir Joins KKR in Kolkata Ahead of IPL 2024
KKR’s newly appointed mentor Gautam Gambhir has joined the team ahead of IPL 2024.
The former Indian cricketer and two-time IPL-winning captain, Gautam Gambhir, has joined the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) camp in Kolkata ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 season.
Gautam Gambhir resigned from his mentoring role at Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) after serving them for two years and has returned to his former franchise, where he will now play the same role of mentor.
Since 2021, Kolkata Knight Riders have missed the playoffs consistently, but with the return of their own Gautam Gambhir, there’s hope for a turnaround in their fortunes.
