Gautam Gambhir is batting brilliantly this season

Kolkata Knight Riders’ captain Gautam Gambhir is the 3rd highest run-scorer in the history of IPL cricket. Gambhir has 3325 IPL runs to his names in 119 Innings (3 more than Kohli). Alongside Kohli, he is the only other batsman on this list without a century to his name. The left-handed batsman's highest score is 83 and he has struck the most fours (390) in an IPL career.

Among batsmen who have scored over 3000 runs in the IPL, he is the only player who has hit less than 50 sixes. Gautam has struck only 47 sixes while the next person with least sixes has 97. With an average of slightly over 31, Gambhir makes runs at a strike rate of 124. A lot of KKR success depends on upon their skipper and good news for them is that he is performing.
