Gautam Gambhir faced Sunil Narine for the first time in the fourth ODI match between India and West Indies. In his six overs, Narine was unable to register a single wicket, but the Indian left-hander made up his mind to add Narine to the KKR squad for 2012

Former Indian opening batsman Gautam Gambhir praised Sunil Narine by saying that he is perhaps the greatest bowler in IPL and he had a hint that Narine would develop as the T20 cricket legend when he saw him making an ODI debut against India in 2011. After seeing him during the debut series, Gambhir also revealed that he decided to add Narine to Kolkata Knight Riders.
"I must have faced seven or eight deliveries and I thought this is the guy who is going to go out there and become the legend of the game, especially in T20 cricket," Gambhir said in KKR Knights Dugout Podcast.
