Even though she recovered, she is not 100 percent fit. So, with children around, I thought it is important to spend time with the family after being on tours for a long time. But that led to so many speculations with people even questioning whether I would retire,” Saha said, “but that’s not the case. I will just take off for a while and then start training for the IPL in a few days.”At the Gujarat franchise, Saha will be reuniting with his old coach Gary Kirsten and former team-mate Ashish Nehra. “Since I have known both, it will be a known environment. But yes, this will be a new challenge and I will have to play to my abilities and ensure that I make the most of it, as and when an opportunity comes my way,” Saha said.
