Gautam Gambhir says Goodbye to KKR: BCCI is soon going to announce the new head coach of India, as Rahul Dravid's tenure has come to an end with India's victory in the T20 World Cup. Several media reports have claimed that Gautam Gambhir will be the next coach. However, the former cricketer has remained silent about this. Meanwhile, Gautam Gambhir has reportedly said goodbye to Kolkata Knight Riders in Kolkata on Friday ahead of the official announcement by the Board of Control for Cricket in India.
A Bengal Cricket Association official gave important information
Actually, according to a Times Now report, two-time IPL title-winning KKR captain Gambhir visited Eden Gardens on Friday and shot a video saying goodbye to the franchise and fans.
It is learned that the video will show Gambhir's journey with KKR. The report quoted a Bengal Cricket Association official as saying that the former Indian opener was present at Eden Gardens on July 5.
Gambhir wanted to leave KKR with a message to the fans
Although the official, on condition of anonymity, said that it was a simple event, Gambhir wanted to say goodbye to his fans with a message and that is why he shot a video at Eden. Gambhir has a deep connection with KKR and Eden Gardens.
He was the first captain to lead the team to two IPL titles in 2012 and 2014. He returned to the franchise as a mentor for the 2024 edition and led the team to lift the trophy for the third time under the leadership of Shreyas Iyer.
