Moreover, he got angry at India cricketers for showing sportsman spirit and having friendly interactions with their Pakistan counterparts following the sides\u2019 rain-affected Asia Cup 2023 fixture.<\/p>\n

Gambhir is very clear about the basics of game and how cricket should be played. Stop giving smooches to opponents. I think those playing for their images should stay only in #Pakistan<\/a> Dugout during #AsiaCup2023<\/a>
That\u2019s why
