Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir, two of India’s most prominent cricketers, have shared a tumultuous relationship both on and off the field. Their rivalry, which has often been played out in front of millions of fans, is marked by several fiery confrontations, especially during the Indian Premier League (IPL). Over the years, their verbal spats have stirred up considerable media attentio??n and fan interest, with many questioning whether the two truly harbored ill feelings toward each o??ther.

However, recently, the duo put an end to all rumors regarding their differences when they sat down for a candid conversation ahead of India’s Test series against Bangladesh. The interaction, posted by the BCCI, was cordial and insightful, allowing fans to see the professional camaraderie that still exists between them despite past confrontations. This conversation was viewed as a significant moment, dispelling long-standing speculations about any lingering tension. It highlighted that, while their personalities may have clashed in the heat of competition, both players respect each other’s contributions to Indian cricket.

B?ut while the air may be clear now, there have been a few instances over the years when Kohli and Gambhir were involved in high-profile clashes that sent social media and fans into a frenzy. Let’s take a look at some of the most memorable moments when the two engaged?? in a war of words:

The heated exchange in IPL 2013

One of the most infamous confrontations between Kohli and Gambhir occurred during the IPL 2013 match between Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). Gambhir, then captain of KKR, and Kohli, leading RCB, were involved in a heated exchange on the ?field after Kohli was dismissed. Words were exchanged, and both players had to be separated by their teammates to avoid further escalation. Th?is altercation was widely covered, with both players fined for their conduct.

Argument during RCB vs LSG clash at IPL 2023

A fresh verbal spat erupted during the IPL 2023 match between RCB and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), where Gambhir was the mentor of LSG. The incident took place during the post-match handshake. After RCB’s win, a heated argument broke out between Kohli and Gambhir, escalating from an earlier confrontation between Kohli and LSG’s player Naveen-ul-Haq. The duo had an intense face-off, and videos of them being restrained by their teammates and coaching ?staff went viral.

Verbal digs in interviews and social media

Gambhir has occasionally taken indirect digs at Kohli in interviews, especially regarding captainc??y, fitness culture, and his ag??gressive style of leadership. While not direct confrontations, these comments have often led to speculation about tension between the two. Gambhir has also been vocal about certain cricketing decisions related to Kohli during his stint as a cricket commentator and analyst.

While Kohli and Gambhir’s relationship has seen its fair share of heated moments and public confrontations, their recent interaction ahead of the Bangladesh series shows that time and maturity have allowed both to move past their differences. What once seemed like an intense rivalry driven by fierce competitiveness on the field now appears to be water under the bridge.

Former Australia international Ricky Ponting has opened up about his affection for young Indian cricketer Rishabh Pant following the latter’s accident on the Delhi-Dehradun highway in December 2022.

Ponting, speaking on The ICC Review, revealed that he has been in constant touch with Pant during the 25-year-old’s recovery.

“I absolutely love the bloke, I told him that on the phone the last couple of days. It was a horrifying time, a really scary time for everybody, let alone him. Anyone that knows him loves him – he’s a really infectious young guy that has the world at his feet still. So we will keep our fingers crossed and hope that he can get back to playing sooner rather than later,” said Ponting.

The ex-Australia captain feels that Pant should take up a role alongside him in the dugout of Delhi Capitals (DC) during this year’s Indian Premier League (IPL).

According to reports, Pant would be out of action for more than 6 months and may fly to London to recover fully from his multiple injuries. Therefore, Ponting has also started looking at the replacements to make up for?? the loss of his star player.

“You can’t replace those guys, simple as that. They don’t grow on trees, players like that. We’ve got to look at – and we already are – a replacement to come into the squad, a wicketkeeper-batsman,” added Ponting.

The Aussie continued: “I want him sitting beside me in the dugout every day of the week.

“If he’s actually not physically fit enough to play, we’d still love to have him around. He’s the sort of cultural leader around the group, being the captain, and that attitude and infectious smile and laugh he has is what we all love so much about him.

“If he’s actually able to travel and be around the team, then I want him sitting beside me in the dugout every day of the week. I’ll certainly be making sure, come the middle of March when we get together in Delhi and start our camps and stuff, if he’s able to be there, then I want him around the whole time,” the Australian legend explained.

With the Pant-Ponting combination at the helm, DC finished??? fifth in IPL 2022 and lost in Qualifier 2 of the 2021 edition.
