Gautam Gambhir, who will be leading Delhi Daredevils in the upcoming season of Indian Premier League, visited the Golden Temple in Amritsar to seek blessings on Thursday, accompanied by his wife Natasha Jain and daughter Aazeen.
He was appointed as DD captain earlier this month. Speaking about his appointment as the skipper, the opening batsman had said,
“I’m privileged to be captaining Delhi Daredevils. It is always great to comeback home, where you stated your IPL career, cricketing career as well. Hopefully, this is the place I’m going to finish as well. So I am really looking forward to it and really really really excited about it.”
Gambhir, who played for Kolkata Knight Riders since 2011, was not retained by the two-time IPL winners and was snapped up by Daredevils for Rs 2.8 crore, from a base price of Rs 2 crore at the IPL Auction in January this year.
