Kohli Sparks Rumors by Unfollowing S. Ganguly on Insta
The cricketing world has been rocked by the latest development in the never-ending saga involving two of India's biggest cricketing stars, Virat Kohli and Sourav Ganguly. Their feud has been the talk of the town after several videos surfaced on social media, showing the duo avoiding each other after an IPL match between Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore.
The incident has raised eyebrows and sparked controversy, with many speculating that there might be bad blood between the two. The videos show Ganguly jumping the queue to shake hands with Kohli, and Kohli staring at Ganguly's direction. Twitter users have gone into a frenzy, debating whether the two are purposely avoiding each other.
Despite the two videos hinting at ongoing tension between Kohli and Ganguly following their row in November 2021, Kohli clarified the situation by unfollowing Ganguly on Instagram, even though Ganguly continued to follow him.
However, a new video emerged on Twitter on Monday, before RCB's game against CSK at home, which showed Kohli and Ganguly. In the video, Ganguly blatantly ignored Kohli as he walked past the RCB dugout, prompting a menacing look from Kohli. Nevertheless, other members of the DC team stopped to greet Kohli, who was already geared up to open for his team.
In the end, Kohli scored his second fifty of the IPL 2023 season at the Chinnaswamy stadium, leading RCB to a 23-run victory that kept DC from earning their first win of the tournament. Delhi currently sits at the bottom of the points table as the only team that has not yet won a match.
Their history goes back a long way. Kohli lost his captaincy of the Indian cricket team when Ganguly was the BCCI president, and rumors have been circulating that this could be the cause of their friction. However, neither of them has confirmed or denied these rumors, leaving the public to make their assumptions.
The latest development in this saga is that the two no longer follow each other on Instagram. This has sent shockwaves through the cricketing world, with many wondering if this is the final nail in the coffin for their relationship. Ganguly has over three million followers on Instagram but does not follow Kohli. Kohli, on the other hand, has over 246 million followers but does not follow Ganguly.
The fact that they have unfollowed each other on social media has only added fuel to the fire, with many speculating that their feud is far from over. Some have even gone as far as to say that this is a sign of disrespect and could be a reflection of their true feelings towards each other.
It remains to be seen what the future holds for these two cricketing giants. Will they be able to put their differences aside and move on, or will their feud continue to escalate? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure, the cricketing world will be watching closely.
