He is a very simple and calm person for our culture. But Gautam Gambhir is a big fan of numbers. The team management always had trouble finding a room for him because they wanted the number 9 to somehow fit into the included room, like 45 or 36. He wanted to make number 9 a part of the room somehow. This is a special thing that I have told on the show. Akram further said about Gambhir’s personality – I have spent a lot of time with Gambhir. We were also together in the Asia Cup panel. But one thing I like about Gambhir is that he has always led the team from the front as a leader, a captain.
