NDTV
Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir interviewed each other in a special video released by the BCCI.
Famously portrayed as the hero and villain in different situations, Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir have joined hands to put an end to the 'masala' that has been driving social media chatter around their relationship for years. Gambhir and Kohli have had some famous altercations on the field, particularly in the Indian Premier League (IPL), dividing their fanbases on social media. However, as the two share the dressing room as coach and player in the Indian team, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) decided to put an end to the rumours through an interview, for the first time ever.

In the glimpse that the BCCI shared on social media, Kohli and Gambhir could be seen poking each other over the numerous on-field altercations they have had with opponent teams' players. It was Kohli who asked Gambhir about the zone he goes into whenever he gets involved into an altercation with a player on the field. But, the response from India head coach completely stumped him.
Virat Kohli: When you are batting and you have a bit of a chat with the opposition, did you ever feel like this might carry on to you going out of the zone and potentially getting out, or it put you in a more motivated state?
Gautam Gambhir: You have had more altercations than I have. I think you can answer that question, better than I can.
