‘The man who ran away from Delhi cricket’: Gambhir posts cryptic tweet after spat with Kohli

Former Indian cricketer and current Lucknow Super Giants mentor Gautam Gambhir has posted a cryptic tweet a day after his verbal altercation with batsman Virat Kohli after the RCB vs LSG match. Gambhir took to his official Twitter handle to share a message in which he wrote that the man who fled Delhi citing pressure from cricket seems keen to sell paid PR as a cricketing concern. However, Gambhir did not mention Kohlis name in his tweet and it is still unclear who the message is meant for.

Here’s what transpired between Kohli and Gambhir

Meanwhile, the rivalry between Gambhir and Kohli resurfaced on Monday when they faced off against each other after the RCB vs LSG match. Cameras captured Gambhir and Kohli arguing over an incident that occurred during the match. Kohli was deeply agitated by LSG’s batting innings in the game and was even involved in a couple of ugly encounters between Naveen-ul-Haq and Amit Mishra.

After RCB beat LSG by 18 runs, Gambhir confronted Kohli about his misbehavior towards the Lucknow players. Kohli didn’t hold back either and got into a heated exchange with Gambhir. The incident created a huge uproar on social media, making the issue the top trending topic in the country for the past two days.

Also note that Gambhir smothered the Bangalore crowd when LSG beat RCB by one wicket in their reverse fixture at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium earlier in the season. So whatever Kohli did in Lucknow can be referenced by Gambhirs gesture in Bengaluru.
