Kohli-Gambhir Verbal Altercation
There was a well-known incident of a verbal altercation between Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir during an IPL match in 2013 when they were playing for different teams.
Kohli, who was leading Royal Challengers Bangalore, and Gambhir, the captain of Kolkata Knight Riders, had a heated exchange of words during the match. It is reported that Gambhir said something to Kohli, which provoked the latter to react aggressively.
The incident took place during the sixth over of the RCB innings when Kohli hit a boundary off paceman Lakshmipathy Balaji. Gambhir, who was fielding at mid-off, apparently said something to Kohli, which led to a verbal altercation between the two players. The argument continued even after Kohli had completed the run.
The incident was widely covered by the media, and there were various speculations about what had been said between the two players. However, both players later downplayed the incident and said that they had moved on from it.
It is worth noting that both Kohli and Gambhir had played together for the Indian cricket team in the past and had shared a good rapport before the incident.
