Meanwhile, on various national issues, political deeds, and other controversial issues, Sehwag never took is bow down, instead initiated in stating his opinions and ideas publicly. However, it must be mentioned that Sehwag’s Twitter account most probably appears like the epicenter of fun when all the cricketers’ handles are put together.
From the very inception of his race on the Internet, Sehwag has wisely procured his pace on Twitter by posting the witty tweets every day. This former cricketer’s journey on Twitter has never come down when the pace and the gravity towards humor are concerned.
However, yesterday a notable incident took place during the jersey launch event of Kings XI Punjab’s jersey launch. Gambhir made some distasteful comments on the salary of Ishant Sharma and Sehwag immediately backed Ishant countering Gambhir.
The word war started when Gambhir commented:
“Nobody will pay Rs 2 crore for 4 overs. I am surprised to see Ishant’s base price.”
And this went further when the regional media channels asked Sehwag to answer on Gambhir’s comments, Sehwag, the bold man straightforwardly responded:
“Tell me one thing, who pays your Rs 12 crore for playing 60 balls then?”
It must be observed that if there is any possibility of an existence of the rivalry, then that might have started when Gambhir vociferously backed the social media’s popular teenager Gurmeher’s views when the country’s every other sportsperson has opposed her.
