Sunil Narine when the captain or mentor is Gautam Gambhir :-#DCvKKR pic.twitter.com/v50oqiXupL

Unreal batting by Sunil Narine. Gambhir's back, and so is Narine.

Gambhir is underrated mentor. He joined LSG – Hooda was playing like Klusner, Badoni was finishing like Prime-Dhoni, Prerak left impact. Now Narine, Russell, Ramandeep, Angkrish are eating bowlers alive. #KKRvDC
— Abhinandan Nahata (@khelgyani_abhi) April 3, 2024
Gambhir worked his magic on Sunil Narine's T20 batting in just one game, but couldn’t quite get inside KL Rahul's head even after two years. Makes you wonder about Rahul's approach.
