Actually, the Virat Kohli-Gautam Gambhir spat that erupted during the IPL 2023 season took a new turn this season when Gambhir shut down critics in an interview with Sportskeeda, expressing his empathy and understanding towards Kohli.
“This perception is far from reality. My relationship with Virat Kohli is something that this country doesn’t need to know about. They have as much right to express themselves and help their respective teams win as I do. Our relationship is not meant to spice things up,” Gambhir said.
Further, at a PUMA event, Kohli talked about the hug and said, “People are very disappointed with my behaviour. I hugged Naveen, and then the other day, Gauti bhai [Gautam Gambhir] came and hugged me. You have run out of masala, that’s why you are hooting. We are not kids anymore.
Gambhir made it clear in his statement that this spat between cricketers is no longer just a game played, but it also represents the relationship between them. He also showed that the level of friendship and understanding between Kohli and Gambhir is as important as the result of the game they play.
When Kohli and Gambhir hugged each other, it not only became a symbol of cooperation on the cricket field, but also showed that they understand each other and are with them. This incident proved that cricket is not only a game, but it is also a feeling of bonding, which runs deep between players.
This moment between Gambhir and Kohli showed that they are not only together but in a bigger sense. Both Kohli and Gambhir are a huge part of Indian cricket in the world. The outcome of their new friendship will have a profound impact not just on the cricket field but also in the hearts of their fans.
In this season of IPL 2024, this friendship between Kohli and Gambhir has signaled a significant change not just on the cricket field but also among their other teammates. It is a message that will promote the importance of compromise and respect between players.
