- Gowtham will step away from playing and mentoring duties, including his backroom role with the Mysuru Warriors in the 2025 edition, as he has become a regular in vernacular cricket commentary.
- Framed by KSCA's new leadership under Venkatesh Prasad, K Gowtham's career included IPL stints and the late Shane Warne calling him `IPL project` in 2018 during a broader Karnataka cricket transition.
