IPL 2019: 3 Teams Gautam Gambhir could play for

#1 Kings XI Punjab

KXIP

The Kings XI Punjab have always been a strong team in the IPL but have failed to win the tournament, despite looking promising on many occasions. One of their biggest areas of concern have been their lack of consistency and this is something which the franchise will be looking to resolve during next year's IPL season.

The franchise announced that they have released Aaron Finch from their team and this provides Gambhir with an ideal opportunity to show the cricketing world that he still has a lot to offer.

The Kings XI Punjab could slot Gambhir in perfectly at the top of the order to open the batting with Chris Gayle and lay a solid platform for the players to come. Gayle would be able to bat around Gambhir and play his game with a lot of freedom, as would David Miller. He himself is capable of really picking up the pace with the bat and can ensure that the batting does not lose momentum.

He could also fill the role of captain for the squad - something which the Kings XI should seriously consider. Gambhir is an experienced campaigner and has seen IPL success before. This experience could be exactly the missing element from the team which is required for them to finally lift that IPL trophy at the end of next season.
