Conversation fixed with Gambhir, just waiting for the announcement?

Is Gautam Gambhir the next coach of Rohit-Birats? After the end of the IPL, this news broke. The Kolkata Knight Riders won the IPL under Gauthi’s mentorship. Before that, he took the Lucknow Super Giants to the playoffs twice. Although he has no direct coaching experience, he has been involved with IPL teams as a mentor for three years. So the race for the new coach of the Indian team is serious. The deadline for submission of applications has passed.

A high-profile owner of an IPL franchise, who is very close to board officials, claims that talks with Gambhir have been finalized. To be announced soon. A renowned commentator told them that the BCCI bosses are bent on getting KKR’s mentor. However, it has not yet reached a place to announce anything officially. Various issues are being discussed between the two sides. Earlier, the names of some foreigners were heard.

But Jai Shah informed me that no former Australian cricketer has been offered to coach. He also said that they are looking to coach someone who has a clear understanding of Indian cricket. Since then, Gambhir’s name has become stronger. As per the current situation, the board does not yet have a second name. But Shahrukh Khan has to be convinced to get Gambhir. Maybe the matter is stuck in this place. Gambhir himself is very keen to coach India. So it might not be difficult to finally get a release from KKR. The matter will become clearer in a few days.
