Five Biggest Controversies of Indian T20 League

4.Kohli and Gambhir clash: The duo was famous for their partnership in the finals of 2011 World Cup final, which steadied the Indian ship after the loss of Virender Sehwag and Sachin Tendulkar. Both Kohli and Gambhir are known for their fighting attitude and giving it back to their opposition’s eye to eye. In this particular instance, Gambhir was captaining the Kolkata team and Kohli was leading the Bangalore side in a league match in 2013.

Kohli’s wicket is always a prized scalp, and when he was caught at deep extra cover, Gambhir’s excitement did not please him. Both the player lost their cool and went charging toward each other. A lot of heated exchange of words went on for a long time and ultimately the umpires intervened to put a stop to the incident. The talk of the clash however continued as a topic of discussion for some time in the future.
