Talking about his viral video that is making rounds on the internet soon after the Asia Cup's India-Pakistan match was washed off due to rain on September 02, former Indian Cricketer Gautam Gambhir on September 04 called it his natural reaction as he was provoked by Pakistani fans’ anti-national and Kashmir slogans. 

Former cricketer Gautam Gambhir has returned to the Indian cricket team as its new head coach, announced by BCCI Secretary Jay Shah on July 9. Shah expressed confidence in Gambhir, known for his crucial roles in India's victories in the ICC T20 WC 2007 and WC 2011 finals. Gambhir, previously a left-handed opener for India, also mentored KKR to their 3rd IPL title in 2024. Following Rahul Dravid's tenure, Gambhir aims to lead India with new goals. He thanked everyone for the opportunity and pledged to bring his experience and vision to guide the team forward in international cricket.
