After Kohli-Gambhir Spat, An Old Video Of Gambhir Giving His MoM Award To Virat Goes Viral

//

The ugly verbal brawl between Indian cricketer Virat Kohli and former Indian cricketer Gautam Gambhir which took place after the IPL match between Lucknow Super Giants and Royal Challengers Bangalore is the hottest topic of the discussion in the cricket world at present.

While Virat Kohli has been associated with RCB since the inaugural edition of 2008 and has also led the team from 2013 to 2021, Gautam Gambhir has been associated with LSG as the mentor of the team. Both Kohli and Gambhir are quite competitive and this is not the first time that we have seen them getting involved in a verbal duel as earlier in 2013 also, one such incident happened.

However amidst the talks of verbal fight between both the cricketers, one old video is going viral in which Gautam Gambhir is seen giving his Man of the Match award to Virat Kohli as he had scored his first international match which was played against Sri Lanka.

A Twitter user shared the video with the caption, “You guys know who Gautam Gambhir is?? He gave his MoM award to Virat Kohli on his first century in international cricket such a gold hearted person he is and some people’s are trolling him for his aggression.”

Today's argument was between Virat and Naveen, Mishra came to calm down Virat, then Gambhir after losing firstly talked umpire and complaining then took Mayers away from Virat then started arguing with Virat but Virat was calmly explaining his point then Mishra again intervened.

I was in the ground watching this match, Virat Kohli was way much aggressive on the field, had a banter with Mayers first, then Naveen ul Haq, then Mishra Ji as well

सुना है क्रिकेट को जेंटल game कहते हैं लेकिन यहां पैसों के आपाधापी के लिए कौन सीनियर कौन जूनियर पता ही नहीं चल रहा है। @imVkohli शायद भूल गए है गंभीर उनके सीनियर है और @GautamGambhir भी भूल गए है वो सांसद होने के साथ एक अच्छे खिलाड़ी भी हैं जो हुआ अच्छा नहीं हुआ @BCCI @ICC

being good doesn’t make you right every time? no 1 knows what happen yet! generally in fights u see coach calming their players but the visuals this time were opposite.

Remember his innings in semi final and final 2011 WC. If there was no Gambhir I have my doubts that Trophy would have been with us. So much joy he bought to us. Respect him

Gautam Gambir is a gem of a person.. He will never invite fight until provoked.
Whereas kohli is always aggressive on the field having all BC, MC gallis in his mouth.
Problem was that he couldn't see a young player like Naveen taking 3 wickets.

Virat Kohli has problems with Anil Kumble, Ganguly, Gambhir and many others..while he is one of the greatest cricket player but should never be a role model for kids..abusing, arrogance and extremely disrespectful

Virat should not have turn the aggression into argument with Mishra.
Gambhir should also not have jump into the fight.
Equal fault of both.
But unnecessary aggression should not be shown in premiere leagues where players from different countries comes to play together as friend.

The incident took place because Virat Kohli and LSG batter Naveen-ul-Haq had an altercation in the 17^th over of the LSG innings and then they again said things to each other while shaking hands after the match. Later on, Gautam Gambhir also had a heated discussion with Virat Kohli and after this incident, 100 percent match fees of Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli is fined while 50 percent match fees of Naveen-ul-Haq is fined as they are found guilty of violating the IPL code of conduct.

What is your take on this incident? Do let us know.
