‘Images that hit hard’: Kohli and Gambhir sport intense looks ahead of RCB vs KKR battle

Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli ahead of RCB vs KKR showdown
One of the most exciting things to watch out for in the upcoming RCB vs KKR clash will be the episode involving Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir.

As the Indian Premier League (IPL) gears up for another electrifying match, all eyes are on the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), who are set to lock horns in the tenth match of the IPL 2024 season.

The pre-match atmosphere is charged with anticipation, not just for the cricket but also for the alleged rivalry between Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir that has captured the imagination of fans and players alike.

Just a few hours before the game, KKR’s official X handle has stirred the pot with an interesting post featuring Kohli and Gambhir. They uploaded two pictures from the training session that captured the two Delhi lads standing apart but their expressions reflecting the intensity of the longstanding feud between them.

With a serious look on both Kohli and Gambhir’s faces, KKR official X handle aptly captioned the post, “Cricket images that hit hard”.

What happened between Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir in IPL 2023?

During IPL 2023, Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir were involved in a heated altercation after a match between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants.

The clash was triggered by an incident involving LSG’s Naveen-ul-Haq and Kohli, which escalated into a confrontation between the two cricketing stalwarts.

Gambhir, who was the mentor of LSG at the time, defended his player, leading to a verbal exchange with Kohli. Both players were fined for breaching the IPL’s Code of Conduct, with Gambhir emphasizing his role in defending his players and expressing his belief that no one can walk over his team members. Gambhir joined his former franchise, Kolkata Knight Riders, as a mentor ahead of IPL 2024.
