KATRA: Former India cricketer and current head coach of the senior men’s team, Gautam Gambhir, arrived in Katra with his family to offer prayers at the holy shrine of Shri Mata Vaishno Devi.

After he arrived in Katra, Gambhir greeted fans and clicked photos with them. Then he joined his family to go to the temple.

Gautam Gambhir coached the Indian cricket team to victory in the 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup. The Men in Blue defended their title and made it two back-to-back T20 World Cup titles. The T20 World Cup 2026 win made India the first team to successfully defend the trophy and win it at home.

Gautam Gambhir’s next assignment as head coach will be an all-format home series against Afghanistan in June, where they will host the Asian counterparts for a one-off Test and three ODIs. They will then play two T20Is against Ireland in Belfast before beginning the highly anticipated England tour in July.
