Gautam Gambhir’s aggressive nature on the cricket field has often made headlines. His fiery temperament and frequent on-field confrontations have sparked much discussion. But why does he always seem to be involved in fights? There are several factors that contribute to his combative nature:
In a 2013 IPL match between KKR and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), Gambhir and Kohli were involved in a heated exchange. The altercation started after a few aggressive words between the two, and both players appeared visibly upset. Their spat grabbed attention, as both are key figures in Indian cricket.
In a 2007 ODI between India and Pakistan, Gautam Gambhir and Kamran Akmal clashed after a heated exchange on the field. Gambhir, upset by Akmal's antics, reportedly pushed him during the altercation. The confrontation intensified, highlighting the tension between the two players, which added fuel to the India-Pakistan rivalry.
In the 2007 ODI between India and Pakistan, Gautam Gambhir and Shahid Afridi had a fiery confrontation. After Gambhir took offense to Afridi’s actions on the field, the two exchanged heated words, leading to a near physical altercation. Both players were involved in a verbal spat, adding to the intense rivalry between the two teams.
In a domestic match between Delhi and Mumbai in 2009, Gambhir and Zaheer Khan were involved in an intense verbal altercation. The fight began after Zaheer bowled a bouncer at Gambhir, which he didn’t take kindly to. The confrontation between the two was widely talked about, but the matter was soon settled after the match.
During an IPL 2015 match between KKR and Delhi Daredevils, Gambhir had a public argument with leg-spinner Amit Mishra. After a couple of misfields, Gambhir expressed his frustration with Mishra's performance, leading to a heated exchange between the two. The situation was defused later, but it was an example of Gambhir's no-nonsense approach to his team's performance.
In 2023, during a low-scoring thriller between Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), an intense verbal exchange took place between Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir. Videos of the incident quickly circulated on social media, showing Gautam Gambhir visibly angry, while Virat Kohli also expressed his displeasure.
