Last year in IPL 2023 Virat Kohli made the headlines for a fight with Gautam Gambhir. The incident took place in in a match between Lucknow Super Giants and Royal Challengers Bangalore. Pakistani batter Agha Salman claimed he had texted Virat Kohli after his big fight.
Agha Salman claimed that he texted Kohli on Instagram. Salman then went on to reveal what happened exactly. “I have so much respect for Virat Kohli, I don’t think there is any cricket fan in the world who doesn’t respect him. I texted him, I am not going to tell you the complete details but will just tell you the start. It started with ‘Virat Bhai’, I texted him when he had a fight with Gautam Gambhir [during IPL 2023],” Salman said.
“I, Abdullah Shafique and Usama Mir were sitting together and watching a match, I think New Zealand were playing a series against Pakistan back then. There was nothing [negative] in that message that would make people think I said something bad,” Salman added.
Back in the T20 World Cup when India clashed with Pakistan, the players shared a laugh together. In Melbourne, Virat Kohli, Salman Agha and Shadab Khan were spotted sharing a laugh together. The Pakistani batter claimed that during that time, the trio was discussing the incident.
“I mistakenly told Shadab Khan about texting Virat. You have watched the video of me, Shadab and Virat standing together [during Asia Cup 2023], actually, at that time, he [Shadab] had told him [Virat] that he [I] texted him,” Salman added.
“We had a bit of laughter after I told Virat that I texted you this, he then told me he may have missed the message as he receives thousands of messages every day. It was all Shadab’s doing [telling Kohli],” Salman concluded.
