'Gauti Bhai Showed His Maturity': Amit Mishra Reveals How the Infamous Feud Between Gambhir and Kohli Simmered Down - WATCH
Amit Mishra revealed how Gautam Gambhir had taken the first steps to de-escalate the feud with Virat Kohli during their infamous tussle in the IPL 2023 season.

Out of favour Indian international Amit Mishra has revealed some interesting inside details regarding the thunderous feud between the new India head coach Gautam Gambhir and the senior international player Virat Kohli that took place in the Indian Premier League 2023 season.

The leg-spinner who was a part of the LSG side was able to witness the intense clash first-hand. He recalled the tussle between two of the biggest personalities in Indian cricket and suggested that Kohli should have been the one who simmered down rather than Gambhir.

Mishra told Shubhankar Mishra on the latter’s YouTube Podcast, “That is the one good thing about Gautam. Virat Kohli did not go and approach him, but Gautam did if you look back”.

The leg-spinner suggested that it was Gambhir who looked to bring the feud to an end and looked to cool things down and showed his maturity in that situation as opposed to Virat.

“He went and asked if the wife and kids were alright. Gautam finished it not not Virat. Gautam is the one who showed his maturity there, but he should have gone first, saying, Gauti bhai, let’s end it here,” he added.

The two have seemingly ended their differences when playing for their franchise and now will be together as Gambhir is set to begin his stint as the Head Coach of the Indian Cricket Team.

Gambhir’s role will begin as the Men in Blue will take part in the away series against Sri Lanka later in July. However, Virat Kohli’s availability remains uncertain with reports suggesting that Gambhir wants his senior players to take part in the 50-over series.

But it is also suggested that the senior player could be missing out on taking a break after scoring the match-winning innings against South Africa in the T20 World Cup 2024 finale.

India’s away series is set to begin on July 27 and end on August 4. The T20I games will take place at Pallekele while the 50-over games take place at Colombo.
