Before the break, Gambhir took over the head coach role of the Indian team and the tour of Sri Lanka was his first assignment.
In Sri Lanka, India won the 3-match T20I series 3-0 but suffered a 0-2 loss in the ODI leg of the tour.
The new season for India and Gambhir begins with the Test series against Bangladesh at home starting September 19.
Earlier, former South Africa fast bowling great Morne Morkel joined Gambhir’s back-room staff as the new bowling coach in the Indian team.
The 39-year-old Morkel was Gambhir’s primary choice, having worked with him at Lucknow Super Giants.
