Gambhir last played for India back in 2016 during a Test match against England. No one can forget his two of the most important knocks which helped India to win the 2007 T20 World Cup and 2011 50-overs World Cup.
Even in the Indian Premier League (IPL), Gambhir spread his captaincy magic when he won two IPL titles for Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in 2012 and 2014.
