Gautam Gambhir makes controversial gesture to fans at Pallekele stadium | Watch

Xtra Time Web Desk: Former Indian cricketer and current BJP politician Gautam Gambhir found himself in the midst of controversy during the Asia Cup 2023 clash between India and Nepal. In a viral video, Gambhir was seen reacting angrily to fans chanting the names of Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni as he passed by. The incident came on the heels of a public spat between Gambhir and Kohli during IPL 2023.

Gambhir’s relationship with Dhoni has also been rocky, and he has faced criticism and accusations of hypocrisy from fans. In a separate video circulating on social media, Gambhir defended his obscene gesture by explaining that some of the fans included Pakistan supporters who were shouting anti-India slogans and making comments about Kashmir. He stated that as an Indian, he couldn’t tolerate such remarks about his country, which led to his reaction.

Gambhir and Kohli have a history of conflicts, dating back to a public altercation in 2013. However, Gambhir recently acknowledged the contributions of Harbhajan Singh in the India vs. Pakistan Asia Cup clash in 2010, highlighting his role in securing victory for India. The incident during the Asia Cup 2023 served as another chapter in Gambhir’s often contentious interactions with fellow cricketers and fans.
