Former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly believes that KKR skipper Gautam Gambhir is in fine form and must be considered for selection in the national team for the upcoming ICC Champions trophy, which kick starts from June 1, in England.
“Gambhir deserves a place in the national team for the forthcoming Champions Trophy. He (Gambhir) is in excellent touch. I am truly elated to have watched Gambhir’s dedication even after playing the game for so many years,” Ganguly said at an IPL match between Kolkata Knight Riders and Rising Pune Supergiant at Eden Gardens on Wednesday.
He also pointed out that youngster K L Rahul is yet to gain match fitness, which should open doors for Gautam Gambhir in the national team.
Gambhir is in prolific form in IPL, as he remains second in the top-scoring batsmen of the IPL 2017, behind SRH skipper David Warner.
