    Bollywood superstar and owner of Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Shah Rukh Khan, reportedly presented a blank check to Gautam Gambhir, ‘Daily Jagran’ has reported.

    Gambhir is also interested in the job of India’s head coach, but wants a guarantee that he will apply only if he is selected for the coach, Daily Jagran claims.
