News India Live, Digital Desk: Gautam Gambhir, who is currently the head coach of the Indian cricket team, has been offered a ‘triple role’ from the new potential owners of Rajasthan Royals. According to the report of Dainik Jagran, the ownership of Rajasthan Royals is about to change and the new management has tried its best to make Gambhir a part of its team. What is the offer of Rajasthan Royals? The new shareholders of RR have proposed to give Gambhir not one or two, but three big responsibilities simultaneously: Partner: Offer to give him 2 to 3 percent equity stake in the franchise. CEO: Position of the Chief Executive Officer responsible for the administrative and strategic decisions of the team. Mentor: Guidance on coaching and on-field strategies of the team. Will Gambhir accept this offer? Although the offer is very attractive, it is almost impossible for Gambhir to accept it at the moment. The main reasons for this are as follows: Conflict of Interest: As per the recommendations of the Lodha Committee and the order of the Supreme Court, no person can simultaneously coach the Indian national team and be a part of an IPL franchise. Existing contract: Gambhir’s tenure with the BCCI is till the 2027 ODI World Cup. He is currently leading Team India’s campaign in the 2026 T20 World Cup. National Commitment: According to sources, Gambhir’s entire focus is currently on making the Indian team a champion, which also includes winning the gold medal at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
