Gautam Gambhir confident for the final of IPL 5 – Cricket News Update
Captain of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), http://www.senore.com/Cricket/G-Gambhir-c1447, does not want his team to take additional pressure in the final of the fifth season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) but feels that if his team plays up to its potential, it has a great chance of
clinching the title.
KKR defeated Delhi Daredevils on Tuesday to qualify for the final of the tournament for the first time in five years. According to most cricket analysts, Kolkata is the hot-favourite to win the cash-rich league because of an extra-ordinary team combination.
Gambhir has led his team from the front in the current season and has impressed one and all with his leadership skills. On top of that, the left-handed opener has been in tremendous form this year and has scored 588 runs in the tournament so far.

since the last four years.
Gambhir’s showings in IPL 5 prove his skills as a skipper but the left-handed batsman expressed that he is just concentrating on getting the best out of Kolkata’s players.
“I have nothing to prove. There’s no one to whom I have to prove something. The only ones to whom I have to prove something are the players in the KKR dressing room. If I can do that, there’s nothing more I would want,” Gambhir expressed.
The final of the league is going to be played on the 27th of this month and Gambhir is confident about the prospect, if his players can hold their nerves together in pressure situations.
“To be honest, it would be just another game for us. If we do not think that way, then we will be putting unnecessary pressure on ourselves. As I have said always, if we play to our potential, we are the team to watch out for. I would say the same thing
for the final,” KKR’s skipper believes.
