A packed calendar across formats awaits Gambhir and the Indian team.
"It is with immense pleasure that I welcome Mr Gautam Gambhir as the new Head Coach of the Indian Cricket Team," Jay Shah, secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) said in a statement.
"I'll sign the petition for Jasprit Bumrah to be the eighth wonder of the world right now. He is a once-in-a-generation bowler," Kohli said.
It was not clear when the Indian team would arrive home, with Indian media on Monday reporting they were stuck in Barbados, delayed by Hurricane Beryl.
It was India's first global title since winning the 2013 Champions Trophy.
India were in sparkling form as they beat England comprehensively to set up a final with South Africa.
Former captain Kohli, 35, has now scored just 75 runs in seven innings this tournament at an average of 10.71.
On the brink of elimination, the Men from Down Under are now looking to a limping Bangladesh to pull off an upset against the high-flying Afghans.
The result leaves the Aussies in a serious spot of bother as they will now hope that Bangladesh beat Afghanistan, and do so by a margin of under 62 runs.
