Gautam Gambhir’s Opinion On Working With Captain
“I have always been a big believer when I was playing when I was mentoring that it is always the captain’s team. Because it’s the captain that leads the team on the field. Yes, me and the entire support staff are there to help the team, help the captain in whatever capacity that we can and there will be times when obviously we’ll have disagreements on a lot of things. But then ultimately, the final call will always be the captain’s call because he is the general there,” Gambhir said on Jio Cinema.
