Both Kohli and Gambhir had heated exchanges on the field in the past but the duo seemed to have buried the hatchet as they shook hands during the IPL 2024 match at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Friday.
A video went viral on social media showing the duo embracing each other and sharing smiles during the strategic timeout.
They engaged in a verbal altercation during IPL 2023 when Gambhir, now serving as Kolkata Knight Riders’ mentor, was affiliated with the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG).
The confrontation started with a heated exchange between Virat and LSG pacer Naveen Ul Haq. Following the match, Gambhir entered the field and participated in another round of verbal altercation with Kohli.
