Gautam Gambhir takes intention at Ponting, Warne over Warner’s six

Gautam Gambhir took potshots at former Australian cricketers Shane Warne and Ricky Ponting after David Warner hit a ball for six after it had slipped out of Mohammad Hafeez’s hand. Citing the ‘spirit of cricket’ argument that’s usually used to focus on Ravichandran Ashwin over the Mankad incident, Gambhir requested whether or not Ponting and Warned had something to say about Warner.
Although what David Warner did is just not in opposition to the legal guidelines of the sport, it’s usually thought of in opposition to the spirit of the sport to hit such a ball to the boundary. Nevertheless, Australia have been in a tough place and Warner hit the ball straight for a six.
In a submit on Twitter, the place he had tagged Ashwin, Gambhir condemned the “absolutely pathetic display of spirit of the game by Warner”.
What a fully pathetic show of spirit of the sport by Warner! #Shameful What say @ashwinravi99? pic.twitter.com/wVrssqOENW— Gautam Gambhir (@GautamGambhir) November 11, 2021
During a present on Star Sports, Gautam Gambhir stated, “Shane Warne comments and tweets about everything. Even Ricky Ponting makes big claims about the spirit of the game. What have they got to say about this?” “When Ashwin does the Mankad, they came up with big comments. Today, what has Shane Warne got to say about David Warner? It’s easy to criticise someone but extremely difficult to criticise your own players,” the previous Indian participant stated.
After one particular person described Gambhir’s tweet as a ‘bad take’, Ashwin himself responded to it.
His level is that if that is proper , that was proper. If that was fallacious , that is fallacious too. Fair evaluation? @plalor— Ashwin 🇮🇳 (@ashwinravi99) November 12, 2021
Earlier within the yr, Shane Warne had referred to as Ashwin’s conduct “disgraceful” after an altercation with KKR captain Eoin Morgan on the sector. Morgan believed it was not within the “spirit of the game” when Ashwin tried to attain an additional run after a throw from a KKR participant ricocheted off Rishabh Pant’s physique.
From Gambhir’s feedback, it seems clear that he does probably not have an issue with David Warner hitting the ball from Hafeez for a six however believes the identical requirements ought to apply to Ravichandran Ashwin as properly. What is nice for the goose needs to be good for the gander as properly.
