Former Indian cricketer Gautam Gambhir has explained his controversial gesture during the Asia Cup match held in September. In an ANI podcast, Gambhir clarified that Virat Kohli was not the reason behind the middle finger gesture at the fans, but that his reaction was caused by the chanting of anti-India slogans.

Everyone reacts differently in the heat of the moment. But I shouldn’t have made that gesture. If fans ignore safety warnings and say ‘Hindustan Murdabad’, I admit I was wrong in my response.

There are reactions when hearing such things. People react differently. Everyone has their own way of thinking. But I admit I shouldn’t have made that gesture,” Gambhir said.

Gambhir also responded to media reports that his response was aimed at Virat Kohli. That is not true and some journalists have selectively misrepresented the incident. I don’t take personal fights seriously. However, when it involves an insult to my country, I have the right to respond,” Gambhir added.
