Former India captain Anil Kumble has said that the heated exchange between RCB’s Virat Kohli and LSG mentor Gautam Gambhir at the Ekana Stadium on Monday night is unacceptable.

“A lot of emotion goes in, but you don’t want to be displaying those emotions here. You need to have a conversation, but this is unacceptable. You have to respect the opposition and the game. Once a game is over, you shake hands and tip your hat off, not to the player, but to the game. I don’t know what was spoken, some things may have been personal, but with Gautam, Virat and the players involved, it wasn’t the nicest thing to see,” said Kumble, JioCinema’s IPL expert.
