Gautam Gambhir has parted ways with Lucknow Supergiants. He has been working as a mentor since the first season of this franchise. On Wednesday, he made an emotional post giving this information on social media. After this, Kolkata Knight Riders announced that Gautam Gambhir had been appointed as a mentor by the KKR team.
While tweeting about his separation from LSG, Gautam Gambhir thanked all the players, support staff, players, etc. and also wished him best wishes for doing better in the future.
Gambhir wrote, “I announce the end of my wonderful journey with Lucknow Super Giants, I express my love and immense gratitude to all the players, coaches, support staff, and everyone who has made this journey memorable.”
Gambhir further wrote, “I would like to thank Dr. Sanjiv Goenka for his inspiring leadership in building this amazing franchise and his tremendous support in all my endeavors. I am sure the team will do wonders in the future and make every LSG fan proud. Best wishes to you for the future.”
KKR released an official statement announcing the appointment of Gautam Gambhir as a “mentor” at KKR. Gambhir’s previous association with KKR from 2011-17 was nothing short of historic. During this period, the team won the title twice, qualified for the playoffs five times, and reached the final of the Champions League T20 in 2014.
After joining KKR, Gambhir said- “I am not an emotional person, and many things do not affect me. But this is different. It’s back to where it all started. Today, when I think of wearing that purple and gold jersey once again, there is a lump in my throat and a fire in my heart. I am not only coming back to KKR but I am coming back to the city of joy. I am back. I am hungry. I am at number 23. Ami KKR.”
Welcoming Gambhir to KKR, Shah Rukh Khan said – “Gautam has always been a part of the family and this is our captain coming back home in a different avatar as a “mentor”. They are sorely missed and now we all are looking forward. Thanks to Chandu sir and Gautam for instilling the never-say-die spirit and sportsmanship to create magic with Team KKR.”
