Gambhir, Naveen and Kohli

The Ex-Indian cricketer Gautam Gambhir posted a birthday wish for the Afghani fast bowler Naveen Ul Haq on Instagram with a cryptic caption. Fans have been taking the caption otherwise and they started trolling Gambhir for doing so as they think it was intended to trigger Virat Kohli.

Since the verbal baffle between Naveen Ul Haq and Virat Kohli took place in IPL 2023 league stage game there has been a lot of hatred being spread across the internet for Naveen. The majority of Virat Kohli fans abuse Naveen on Social media whenever the latter tries to post anything on the internet.

On his 24th Birthday Naveen got a special wish from none other than Gautam Gambhir who is also his mentor in the Lucknow Supergiants team. Gautam Gambhir have backed Naveen on numerous occasions in the IPL 2023 even when he was engaged in a verbal argument with Kohli.

Did Gautam Gambhir take a dig at Virat Kohli while congratulating Naveen on his 24th Birthday

While wishing the budding fast bowler Happy Birthday on Instagram Gautam Gambhir wrote a cryptic caption targeting the haters of Naveen. GG’s caption was “Happy Birthday @naveen_ul_haq! There are very few like you. Never change!”

The former Indian team opener Gautam has also been getting a lot of hate for his words among the Indians since his cricket days. The 2011 World Cup winner has faced a lot of criticism from the fans for his harsh words for the Indian cricket legends.

There are not many who like Gautam Gambhir just as Naveen Ul Haq and that is why GG told Naveen not to change.

Gautam Gambhir to miss the IPL 2024 following the Lok Sabha Elections

The former Indian cricketer is also a Lok Sabha member and the Election 2024 will make him skip the IPL 2024. Gautam Gambhir will be busy in campaigning to retain his seat in the Lok Sabha Election 2024. Gambhir’s absence will be felt in the LSG dugout as he is the face of the team for all the fans.

Gautam Gambhir is not just a mentor of the LSG team but a leader as well when it comes to taking a stand for his players as we saw in the IPL 2023. When Kohli was abusing the young fast bowlers in front of a packed Lucknow crowd Gambhir took his player’s stand and told Kohli not to misbehave with his players.
