Cricketers Gavaskar & Kohli Caught in A War of Words | First Sports with Rupha Ramani

Sunil Gavaskar criticised Virat Kohli for lashing out at commentators over his IPL strike rate, urging broadcasters to reconsider airing the clip. Despite Kohli's unbeaten 70 off 44 balls, maintaining a 159.09 strike rate in RCB's win against Gujarat Titans, Gavaskar stressed on commentators' objectivity. Kohli defended his approach, prioritising team wins over individual stats, while leading the IPL Orange Cap race currently, with 542 runs at an average of 67.75 and a strike rate of 148.09. Gavaskar's rebuke underscores the debate surrounding players' responses to media scrutiny, highlighting the fine balance between personal performance and team success in cricket's high-pressure environment. It has been a fiery build-up to India’s T20 World Cup campaign. Can India put this noise behind their preparations for the big event? Watch First Sports with Rupha Ramani to know more.
