Gautam Gambhir, the former Indian Cricketer

 


Gautam Gambhir, the former Indian cricketer known for his aggressive style and sharp leadership, is currently in a deeply personal battle. While he just took over as the Head Coach for the Indian men's cricket team in July 2024, a role that's already seen India lift the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy, his immediate focus is on his family.


A Mother's Health Crisis

As of June 15, 2025, Gambhir is back in India. He abruptly left the team's preparations in England for an upcoming Test series after his mother suffered a cardiac arre
st and is in the ICU
at a New Delhi hospital. His return to the squad is entirely up in the air, hinging on her recovery. In his absence, assistant coaches like Ryan ten Doeschate, Sitanshu Kotak, and Morne Morkel are stepping up.


Recent Triumphs and a Shift in Priorities

Before this personal emergency, Gambhir was on a professional high. He made a much-anticipated return to the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) as their mentor in IPL 2024. Many credit his presence and fierce winning mentality with transforming the team and guiding them to their third IPL title after a decade-long wait. Before KKR, he spent two successful years as mentor for the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), helping them reach the playoffs in both 2022 and 2023.


From Politics to the Pitch

Gambhir even had a brief stint in politics, serving as a Member of Parliament (Lok Sabha) for the East Delhi constituency from 2019 to 2024 with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). However, he stepped down earlier in 2024, signaling his renewed dedication to cricket.

It's clear that while his professional life is soaring, Gautam Gambhir is navigating one of life's toughest challenges, putting family above everything else right now.
