Ready to play for any IPL Team, Says Gautam Gambhir

Written by Toshi Pawar

With the Indian Premier League (IPL) Governing Council asking franchises to name their retained players by January 4, three weeks before the auctions, all eyes are on former India captain Gautam Gambhir who has led Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) to the title twice. However the former India opener said he hasn’t spoken to the KKR management as yet.

“It is very surprising that I have not spoken to anyone (in KKR management). I don’t know about myself (future with KKR). We’ll probably sit and talk after the Ranji final. But yes I am (open to playing for any franchise). You have achieved so much for KKR. You have done whatever you could. If things do not work out in future, the good part is that you are leaving a franchise on a good note, when it has become a successful franchise. Not when you were struggling,” says Gambhir.

“As a professional, you want different challenges. There is nothing wrong in it. That’ll keep you motivated and hungry” he added.
