Gambhir, who was attending an event in Kolkata, was asked the same question over becoming Team India head coach.
Delhi: The fact that Gautam Gambhir is the frontrunner in the race to become Rahul Dravid’s successor as Team India head coach has been doing the rounds for over a month now. With the announcement likely to happen by the end of this month, speculations are rife. Gambhir, who was attending an event in Kolkata, was asked the same question over becoming Team India head coach. The former opening batter decided to remain tight-lipped over the matter.
“I don’t see that far ahead. You are grilling me, asking me all tough questions. It is difficult to answer right now. All I can say is that I’m happy being here, just finished a brilliant journey (and) let’s enjoy that. I’m in a very happy space right now,” Gambhir said at a ‘Rise To Leadership’ seminar.
“If you have the intent of keeping your team ahead of any individual, things will fall in place. If not today, tomorrow, if not tomorrow, someday it will fall in place,” he said. “But if you start thinking on that, or if you know that you need to help one or two individuals perform, then your team will only suffer.”
“For me, the guru mantra is team first philosophy. I think team-first ideology, team-first philosophy is the most important ideology in any team sport,” he added.
