Gautam Gambhir mentor KKR IPL 2018
Gautam Gambhir might be roped in as a mentor for KKR for the forthcoming IPL season.

Indian opening batsman, Gautam Gambhir is known as a very competitive guy, yet he is one of the shy persons in Indian cricket.

On multiple occasions, we have seen the former Delhi skipper getting involved in heated arguments with his opponents on the field, whether it is from a different country or his own statesman.

The 35-year-old has been the pillar of Indian batting for years, and he was the one to lead the charge in two World Cup finals for India with the bat when the team was in a tricky situation.

Gambhir started his IPL career for Delhi but was later picked by Kolkata Knight Riders and he has converted the trust of the owners into two IPL titles.

This year KKR failed to reach the finals, as they were beaten in the eliminator by Mumbai Indians. Days before the eliminator during a party to celebrate 10 years of KKR, the opening batsman revealed who his celebrity crush is.

Gautam Gambhir revealed that his celebrity crush is Yami Gautam, the tall actress who made her way into Bollywood with a super hit movie, Vicky Donor.

The interviewer further asked the India international that is it because of Gautam connection, you have taken her name?

Gauti replied that no it is nothing like that. It is certainly a side of Gautam Gambhir that his fans don’t get to see very often.

Here’s the video of that interview:

Meanwhile, Gautam Gambhir has started off the domestic season on a positive note, as he scored a brilliant 137 in the first innings to help Delhi register a comfortable win on the basis of first innings lead.
