In the last few days, Virat Kohli, Naveen-ul-Haq, and Gautam Gambhir have become the talk of the town in the cricketing fraternity. Last week, the trio was seen engine in an ugly tussle during a clash between the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Lucknow Super Giants. Seems like things have still not settled down quite well and it seems to be continuing off the field as well.
On Tuesday, Naveen-ul-Haq and LSG mentor Gautam Gambhir was trending on social media for their Instagram stories they uploaded right after Virat Kohli got dismissed cheaply in the clash against Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. While Gambhir posted an appreciation post for Jason Behrendorff, who took the wickets of Virat Kohli, Anuj Rawat, and Glenn Maxwell. Naveen posted a picture of having mangoes while watching the game after the dismissal of Virat.

After the on-field feud between Virat Kohli and Naveen-ul-Haq, the tension between the aggressive players continues on social media. IPL 2023 saw its biggest controversy when RCB and India legend Kohli and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) pacer had a go at each other during and after the IPL game, almost a week back.

Naveen and Kohli had a spat during the match after the LSG pacer and Mohammed Siraj had a verbal banter. Later, Naveen refused to shake hands with Kohli which rattled the former RCB skipper.
Gautam Gambhir, seeing Kohli still going at Naveen, decided to intervene only to lose cool himself. It has been over a week now since the all-famous banter between Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir duel took place at the Ekana Sports City Stadium after a match between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants.

The spat between two World Cup-winning teammates took the spotlight away from all the stats and results of the contest between RCB and LSG. BCCI even docked a strict fine on both senior cricketers after several veteran cricketers and fans expressed their disappointment over the heated exchange between Kohli and Gambhir.
