India batsmen Gautam Gambhir, has been hogging all the limelight since he was bought for a record amount by Kolkata Knight Riders. The left-handed batsman spoke to TWF correspondent Arijeet Mukherjee on India's chance and the pressure to play in the World Cup.
You will be playing in your first World Cup and that too at home?
It is a great privilege to be a part of the World Cup team, and playing at home makes it special. The two-three years have been great for me and I have worked hard to perform consistently. I was never in contention in the last World Cup in 2007, but since then I have been a part of the core team and it gives me a lot of satisfaction.
