In 2009, Gautam Gambhir gave his MOM award to Virat Kohli for his maiden 💯. It’s a priceless moment for any young player. But #ViratKohli hate GG. Virat should remembered what GG has done for him and should respect GG. #RCBvLSG #TATAIPL2023 pic.twitter.com/4aRbYUmdlS

Talking about the incident in a detailed manner, the RCB stalwart was as usual aggressively celebrated during the LSG-RCB clash and he had a heated argument with LSG’s pacer Naveen-ul-Haq and Kyle Mayers. It has also been reported that all this drama took place because of Mohammed Siraj's bouncers and throws that were aimed at Naveen. The Afghani pacer went berserk after back-to-back bouncers and throws which Kohli had told Siraj to bowl. But then Kohli refused and said that he has not asked Siraj to target Naveen instead only told him to bowl bouncers.
Post the game, again Virat and Naveen had an ugly spat and the former India skipper reportedly complained about Naveen.
