Former Indian pacer Ashish Nehra, who recently retired from international cricket, may soon make a comeback as behind-the-scene man for one of the Indian Premier League (IPL) teams. According to sources, discussions are on board for the Delhi pacer's new role as mentor for either Royal Challengers Bangalore, Delhi Daredevils or Rajasthan Royals for the upcoming IPL season. While there has been no official confirmation regarding Nehra's association with any of the teams but chances of him mentoring the Virat Kohli-led RCB are probably higher.
