Will Be All About Our India- Gambhir
In the video, Gambhir shares an emotional message with KKR fans, expressing his deep-rooted connection with them. He talks about sharing their joys, sorrows, victories and defeats, emphasising that he is one of them.
"I smile when you smile, I cry when you cry, I win when you win, I lose when you lose, I dream when you dream, I achieve when you achieve, I believe with you and become with you. I am you Kolkata, I am just one of you. I know your struggles and I know where it hurts. Rejections have crushed me but like you I wake up embracing hope, I get beaten everyday but like you I am yet to be defeated. They tell me to be popular, I tell them to be a winner, I am you Kolkata, I am just one of you," said Gambhir in the video.
"As we both take our fresh chords we promise each other we will never walk alone. It will also be shoulder to shoulder, hand in hand. It will all be about that tricolor, it will all be about our India," adds the Indian team head coach in the video.
