Gautam Gambhir Joins LSG to KKR, Joins Kolkata Knight Riders Before IPL 2024 Auction


Gautam Gambhir parted ways with Lucknow Super Giants after two seasons and he has joined Kolkata Knight Riders ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 season.

Gambhir Penned an emotional note while leaving Lucknow Super Giants :

As I announce the end of my impeccable journey with Lucknow Super Giants, I am filled with love and immense gratitude towards all the players, coaches, support staff and everyone who has made this journey memorable.


I would like to thank Dr. Sanjiv Goenka for his inspiring leadership in creating this remarkable franchise and his tremendous support in all my endeavors. I am sure the team will do wonders in the future and make every LSG fan proud. Good luck LSG Brigade!


Kolkata Knight Riders welcomed Gautam Gambhir

Here's what Gautam Gambhir said on his emotional return to Kolkata Knight Riders:

I am not an emotional person and a lot of things don't impress me. But this is different. It's back to where it all started. Today, when I think of wearing that purple and gold jersey once again, there is a lump in my throat and a fire in my heart. I am not only coming back to KKR but I am coming back to the city of joy. I am back. I am hungry. I am at number 23. Ami KKR.


During his impressive stint with KKR from 2011 to 2017, Gambhir contributed to the team's historic success. The team has won the title twice, made the playoffs five times and reached the Champions League T20 final in 2014. After his stint with KKR, Gambhir played for Delhi Capitals before taking up a mentorship role with LSG.
