In a surprising twist of events, Gautam Gambhir has bid adieu to his IPL franchise, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), after a two-year stint. The cricketer is now poised to rejoin his former team, the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), taking on the role of a mentor for the upcoming IPL 2024 season.

Gambhir, who previously captained KKR from 2011 to 2017, is set to reunite with the team that witnessed his exceptional leadership, resulting in two IPL titles in 2012 and 2014, along with a runner-up finish in the Champions League T20 in 2014.

His affiliation with the Kolkata Knight Riders dates back to the franchise’s golden era, where his captaincy left an indelible mark on the team’s history. Under his guidance, KKR not only secured the coveted IPL trophy in 2012 and 2014 but also established themselves as formidable contenders on the international stage.

Gautam Gambhir Makes a Comeback to KKR as Mentor

After a successful tenure with KKR, Gambhir embraced a new challenge two years ago by joining Lucknow Super Giants. During his stint with LSG, he played a crucial role in shaping the team’s strategies and fostering player development, leading them to the knockout stage twice. However, the recent announcement of his departure has left fans curious about the motivations behind this decision.

Gambhir’s return to KKR as a mentor adds an extra layer of anticipation to the upcoming IPL season. Teaming up with head coach Chandrakant Pandit, the former skipper brings a wealth of experience and cricket insight that could prove pivotal in guiding the team’s emerging talents and enhancing overall squad dynamics.

Following his departure from LSG, Gambhir shared a heartfelt note expressing gratitude to his former franchise, acknowledging the journey and thanking the owners for their unwavering support during his tenure.
