For me, results matter, because people come to watch KKR win.”
Gambhir also hailed KKR supporters as one of the most devoted fanbases nationwide. He praised their unwavering support for the team. He said, “I genuinely and from the bottom of my heart feel that KKR has the most loyal fan base in the entire country. The reason is because, see the history of KKR, the fans have gone through a lot in the first 3 years and then the way they stuck with the team in their thick and thin shows the kind of passion they have.”
