Gautam Gambhir: Before the 18th season of the Indian Premier League, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) mentor Gautam Gambhir has resigned from the post of coach.
Former left-handed opener of the Indian cricket team, Gautam Gambhir, took over the responsibility of the mentor of Shah Rukh Khan-owned franchise KKR before the IPL 2024 season. However, now he has resigned from the post of mentor. In such a situation, Ravi Shastri can get a big responsibility.
After Gautam Gambhir, Ravi Shastri will take over the responsibility
After Gautam Gambhir's resignation from the post of Kolkata Knight Riders mentor, franchise owner Shahrukh Khan may propose Ravi Shastri, a member of the 1983 World Cup winning team and former head coach of the Indian cricket team, to join Kolkata Knight Riders as a mentor. Ravi Shastri is currently not bound by any commitments and is currently seen in the role of a commentator. In such a situation, he is unlikely to refuse Shahrukh Khan's proposal.
