Manan Vohra has claimed how a chat with Gautam Gambhir has made him realise how Gautam Gambhir is different form other mentors. During his stint at Lucknow Super Giants, Gambhir has claimed that life is different for every cricketer. Vohra once complained of getting just a single opportunity, which Gambhir with a straight face made him understand that each cricketer’s life is different.
Vohra revealed that during his Rajasthan Royals days, young Riyan Parag was constantly backed by the team. But that hasn’t been the case for him. “He got the opportunities but there was a stage when he was not doing well but got the backing. I didn’t feel bad that he was getting the backing, and I didn’t, but I wanted that I should also get it,” claimed Vohra.

Bitter-sweet Advice for Manan Vohra
After his move to LSG, Gambhir gave him a dose of reality. On a challenging, rain curtailed match Vohra managed some decent scores, but on the next day he was dropped. When Vohra questioned Gambhir about it, with a straight face the former LSG mentor revealed that life is different for everyone.
“He answered me very plainly-sweetly-simply and said, “Life is different for everyone; some players get eight matches, some get just one. It’s not everyone gets the same amount of matches, but if you have got one match, then you have to do it in that one match only, end of story,” and I was like stunned,” Vohra claimed in a YouTube podcast.
And after this advice, Vohra understood what separated Gambhir from the rest of the mentors in the Indian Premier League.
