Promising to make Kolkata happy this season, Kolkata Knight Riders mentor Gautam Gambhir said the team had made him a successful leader.
On his return to the franchise, Gambhir, the two-time Indian Premier League-winning captain of the side, said, “I didnt not make KKR successful, KKR made me a successful leader. KKR meant passion, honesty, sacrifice and it meant selflessness,” said Gambhir at the ‘Knights Unplugged’ event here on Monday.
“Dre Russ taught me a lot of things about passion. When I talk about sacrifice, this young shy boy, he has gone through so much — reported, banned, coming back and doing the same stuff years after years. I had seen his insecurities, have lived through that. He (Sunil Narine) has gone onto become one of the greatest bowlers in IPL history.
