Indian team batsman Gautam Gambhir can come in politics. It is being said that he can contest elections from New Delhi on the ticket of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). According to the sources, BJP wants to give a serious green signal in the forthcoming general election as its representative. The party can take this decision to strengthen its hold in the capital. Since he is famous and originally from Delhi, he can prove to be the right representative for the BJP. It is said that all preparations have been done for this.

However, Gambhir has not said goodbye to cricket right now. But he can accept this invitation from the party. He did not play in the Indian team for two years. For the last time, he played a Test match in 2016, and since 2012, he did not play limited overs matches. But he had an important role in India's victory in the 2007 T20 World Cup and the 2011 World Cup.

In the two seasons of the Indian Premier League (IPL), he led the Kolkata Knight Riders. He was later given the command of Delhi Daredevils, but he could not show anything special. After the team's defeat, he left his captaincy. Before the serious, there are many Indian players, who had entered politics after retiring from cricket.

For example, Kirti Azad, Mohammad Azharuddin, Navjot Singh Sidhu, Mohammad Kaif, Praveen Kumar, Vinod Kambli and Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi. At the same time, at the global level, Arjuna Ranatunga and Sanath Jayasuriya also came into politics after the game. Recently, former Pakistani cricketer Imran Khan became the Prime Minister of the country. He is the only cricketer in the world who has become PM of a country.
