IPL 2025: After Removal From Indian Team, Abhishek Nayar Re-joins KKR Support Staff
Indian Premier League: Just a few days after he was removed as assistant coach of the Indian men’s cricket team, Abhishek Nayar has formally rejoined Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) support staff for the rest of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025.
Nayar had earlier worked for KKR from IPL 2018 and also took care of grooming young Indian players in the side’s academy in Mumbai. He was part of the side winning IPL 2024, before taking up the role of assistant coach with the Indian team, as Gautam Gambhir took over as the side’s new head coach in July last year.
Both Gambhir and Nayar, who was lauded by many players like KL Rahul and Varun Chakaravarthy amongst others for their successful run and revival of white-ball cricket careers, were together in the KKR set-up when they won IPL 2024. “Welcome back home,” said the franchise through its social media accounts on Saturday.
