This led to a long stare-down between the two, with Sreesanth appearing visibly frustrated. Following the match, Sreesanth took to Instagram to express his disappointment with Gambhir’s behavior. In a video message, he accused Gambhir of verbally abusing him without any provocation and stated that he would reveal the exact words used in due time.

 

“Just wanted to clear the air with what happened with Mr. Fighter. He always fights with all his colleagues for no reason whatsoever,” Sreesanth said. “He doesn’t even respect his own senior players, including Viru Bhai. Today, he just kept calling me something very rude, which shouldn’t have been said.”

Sreesanth emphasized that he did nothing to provoke Gambhir and called out the latter’s disrespectful treatment of colleagues. He also condemned Gambhir’s past comments about Virat Kohli, stating that he never speaks positively about his own teammate.

“What’s the point of representing people if you don’t respect your own colleagues? Even in broadcasting, when he’s asked about Virat, he never speaks about him,” Sreesanth remarked. “I don’t want to go further, but I am very hurt, and my family is hurt. I haven’t used a single bad word, but he kept saying words, which he always does.”
