Gambhir Breaks Silence On “Next Mission”, It Has Enough Hint That He’ll..

Will Gautam Gambhir be the Rahul Dravid‘s successor in the Indian Cricket team as head coach? That perhaps, is the biggest question in Indian cricket currently. Dravid’s tenure ends with the 2024 T20 World Cup and his successor, according to a press release by BCCI, will take over from July 1. However, there has been almost complete silence on who all have applied for the top role. Going by BCCI secretary Jay Shah’s statement, an Indian is likely to be at the helm. 

Several reports have claimed that Gambhir is one of the front-runner for the post but in a recent interview, after he mentored KKR to IPL 2024 title, he indicated something unique. He was asked about KKR now being a ‘trophy-winning dressing room’. 

“Today you are saying this because we have won our third trophy. But if you ask me, we are still two trophies away from MI and CSK. Today I am content, but again that hunger (is there) that you are still not the most successful team in the IPL, for that to happen you need to win the IPL three more times,  which will require a lot of hard work. So I think, the next mission is that, if we can make KKR the most successful team in the IPL. There won’t be any bigger feeling for me. But the journey abhi shuru hui hai (the journey has just started),” Gautam Gambhir said on
