Gambhir will compete against Virender Sehwag, the captain of the Giants team and his longtime opening partner for India and Delhi. The seasoned explosive batter, who led the India Maharajas team in the exhibition game, got off to a winning start and will look for more of the same when the tournament proper kicks off from September 17.
