After the match ended with Capitals beating Giants to e book a spot in Qualifier 2, Sreesanth launched a video on his Instagram web page, accusing Gambhir of claiming some derogatory issues to him.
“I just wanted to clear some air about what happened with Mr fighter, who fights with all his collagues for no reason whatsoever. He does not even respect his own senior players including Viru bhai (Virender Sehwag) and a lot of people. That is exactly what happened. Without any provocation, he kept on calling me something which is very rude. It should have been never said by Mr Gautam Gambhir,” Sreesanth could be heard saying within the video.

“What’s the point of representing people if you do not respect your own colleagues. During broadcast when he is asked about Virat (Kohli), he never speaks, he speaks about something else. I don’t want to go further ind detail. I just want to say I am very hurt. My family is hurt. I have not used ay bad word,” mentioned Sreesanth.
Gambhir has not reacted to the feedback made by Sreesanth whereby he has put massive accusations on the cricketer. Gambhir and Sreesanth have been India teammates on the 2007 T20 World Cup and ODI World Cup 2011.
