Kolkata Knight Riders mentor Gautam Gambhir was a happy man on Sunday night at the MA Chidambaram Stadium after his team beat Sunrisers Hyderabad to lift the IPL trophy for the third time in history. And he was a busy man as well as he celebrated with each of the KKR players and also obliged with photographs. Amid the celebrations, he took out time to meet and greet BCCI secretary Jay Shah, who was present for the IPL final, and was later seen having a lengthy chat which sparked speculations over his India head coach job.
Gambhir has emerged as the frontrunner to replace Rahul Dravid as head coach. The India legend’s tenure ends after the 2024 T20 World Cup in June. With Dravid not willing to reapply for the position, BCCI called for applicants to replace him for the high-profile job. The contract is slated to last until the end of the 2027 ODI World Cup.
