Kohli has reassured the BCCI that any past disagreements with Gambhir will not impact the game

As Gautam Gambhir takes on the role of head coach for the Indian cricket team, there has been speculation about his history of clashes with Virat Kohli. Following Rahul Dravid's departure, Gambhir was selected as the top choice for the position due to his success in the Indian Premier League. Kohli has agreed to join the ODI series against Sri Lanka, marking the first time he will be working with Gambhir.

Reports from Cricbuzz confirm that Kohli has assured the BCCI that any past disagreements with Gambhir will not affect their teamwork. Both players are known for their intensity on the field and have faced each other as opponents. However, their interactions during IPL matches have shown a positive relationship. Gambhir has stated that their bond is not meant for public display and is not well understood by outsiders.

During a recent event, Kohli addressed criticism of his behaviour on the field, especially after sharing a hug with Gambhir. Despite this, both Kohli and Rohit Sharma have made themselves available for the upcoming ODI series to support Gambhir in his first role as head coach. This demonstrates their commitment to working together towards the team's success.
