Skipper Gautam Gambhir's experience of winning successive IPL titles for Kolkata Knight Riders makes him a valuable leader, said Delhi Daredevils assistant coach Pravin Amre here today.
"Gautam comes with the experience of winning IPL twice for KKR which increases his value as a leader. That's the beauty of it all, anybody can't win the championship just like that. He won back to back championships for KKR, that's what he brings to the table," he told reporters on the eve of the match here.
"As coaches we cannot be on the field always. Quick decisions need to be taken on the field. I think, that is where the captain has to be one step ahead of the game. That is the quality Gautam," he added.
Amre also said Gautam knows all the tricks of the game and also has a very good command on the players.
"Gautam knows what are the changes needed, especially when it comes to breaking big partnerships or when you get back to back wickets how to use your fifth bowler, putting pressure when the new batsmen are coming," he said.
"He is very good in that, because he played all the IPLs, that's the value and experience he brings to the table. He's got a very good command on the players also."
