IPL 2024 | Twitter reacts to Kohli-Gambhir burying hatchet with a hug leaving past grievances behind
The beauty of friendship lies in its ability to transform even the most bitter adversaries into allies. Such was the scene in the high voltage game between Kolkata Knight Riders and Royal Challengers Bengaluru wherein Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir hugged each other forgetting old fights.
The Chinnaswamy Stadium was buzzing with anticipation as the Kolkata Knight Riders prepared to clash with the Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Beyond the excitement of the match itself, all eyes were on Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir, two titans with a history of tension in the lucrative tournament. After losing the toss, Royal Challengers Bengaluru's opening duo, Virat Kohli and Faf Du Plessis, took to the crease. However, Faf's early departure in the second over shifted the pressure onto Kohli to turn the tide for the home team. Yet, amidst the intensity of the game and Kohli's batting prowess, attention veered towards the unexpected interaction between Kohli and Gambhir.
During the strategic timeout, as both teams' managements convened on the field to strategize, spectators were taken aback as Gambhir and Kohli shared a handshake and hugged each other, followed by an embrace. This moment was significant, considering the history of animosity between the two players, a rivalry that had brewed over several years in the IPL.
The incident swiftly ignited reactions across the Twitterverse, with social media platforms abuzz with emotions pouring in from fans and observers alike.
