After replacing Rahul Dravid at the helm of Indian cricket, Gautam Gambhir will make his much-awaited debut as head coach of the team during the upcoming white-ball tour of Sri Lanka. BCCI announced Gambhir as head coach earlier this month after Dravid’s tenure came to an end, following Team India’s T20 World Cup triumph in Barbados. 

Ahead of Gambhir’s debut tour, former Australian pacer Brett Lee who was his teammate in IPL franchise, Kolkata Knight Riders shared his views on the appointment of the former Indian batsman as head coach. Lee pointed out that Gambhir will bring an aggressive and winning mindset to the Indian team.

“He’s (Gautam Gambhir) done a terrific job every time he’s had an opportunity. The Indian Premier League title with KKR is the best example. He’s always been there, always at the top of his game. He finds a way to unite his players and graft his team together. He builds a solid structure. He has been a terrific player, and his aggression and winning attitude will help India. He has shone internationally as a player. India is in safe hands with Gautam Gambhir as coach,” Lee said.
