Gautam Gambhir’s team player committed foul
Gautam Gambhir played the role of mentor of Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2024 and the command of this team was in the hands of experienced player Shreyas Iyer. Under the captaincy of Shreyas Iyer, the team won the IPL 2024 title and came into the media headlines overnight. But now he has been released by the Kolkata management for IPL 2025, but it is being said that he himself has decided to opt out.
For this reason Shreyas Iyer decided to opt out
Earlier it was reported that Shreyas Iyer has been thrown out by the Kolkata management. But if recent equations are to be believed, he himself decided to opt out. It is being said that Shreyas Iyer was being retained in Kolkata at a price of Rs 12.25 crore and he was not happy with this salary. For this reason Shreyas Iyer himself has decided to opt out. It is being said that money may rain on them in the IPL auction.
