Want my boys to play fearless cricket: KKR captain Gautam Gambhir

To Gambhir,captaining KKR is an 8220;honour8221; rather than 8220;pressure.8221;

8220;It8217;s always been an honour to lead KKR and it8217;s not about me only. It8217;s also about all the 23 players.8221;

Terming it as a 8220;political decision8221; Gambhir stressed that one or two Sri Lankan players not playing a game in Chennai would not matter a lot.

KKR has one Sri Lankan player in offie Sachitra Senanayeke.

8220;One or two individuals don8217;t matter in a team. If 11 people are going in the same direction,it is a bigger threat for the opposition. In any case,we will get Senanayeke for other 15 league games. Hope that he will strike a good combination with Sunil Narine.8221;

Gambhir also supported KKR management8217;s decision to appoint Australian pacer Brett Lee as the Team mentor.

8220;I don8217;t think there will be any additional pressure on Brett. It is better to appoint someone who is a part of the set-up rather than someone new. Also Brett has been bowling really well. He recently clocked 150 kmph during the Big Bash for Sydney Sixers. If he can bowl at that pace in the IPL,there is nothing like it.8221;
