India Head Coach Gautam Gambhir silences Virat Kohli with cheeky one-liner says, ‘Had more altercations than me’
Ahead of IND vs BAN 1st Test the head coach of team India Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli have decided to put an end to the ‘masala’ over their rift with a treat for fans. The duo, who were rumoured to be at loggerheads with each other, decided to put aside their differences to treat the Indian fans to a never seen before chat. Gambhir and Kohli, both who were a part of the 2011 World Cup winning team, had a long chat about various topics including on field altercations, their mentality and much more.
In a video of the one on one chat between Gambhir and Kohli, the former recalls the latter’s bumper series against Australia where he piled up runs and says that it ‘got him into that zone’. Gambhir revealed that he was in a similar zone when he played in Napier, New Zealand and admitted that he had never been in that zone after that.

Virat Kohli questioned Gambhir about his tendency to have a chat with the opposition, asking him if that moved him out of the zone or boosted his confidence. Gambhir’s response left the batting maestro stunned as the former pointed out that Kohli had more altercations compared to himself. The response left Virat Kohli in splits, who admitted that he was indeed looking for validation for his approach.
