Just hours after former India cricketer Sunil Gavaskar took a fresh jibe at Virat Kohli ahead of the IPL 2024 clash between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Chennai Super Kings at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, the RCB opener launched a scathing attack on the India legend, saying that he needs no one’s approval or assurance about his game.
Kohli has long been criticised for his strike rate in the T20 format, especially against spinners and in the middle overs. In fact, at the start of the IPL 2024 season, a report indicated that it could even cost Kohli his spot in the T20 World Cup squad.
The criticism remained in the opening half of the ongoing season as well before Kohli hit back at his critics following his match-winning 70* against Gujarat Titans, where he scored 61 runs against the spinners at a strike rate of 179. Furious at the former India captain’s explosive remark, Gavaskar blasted Kohli live on-air.
