Gujarat Titans (GT) had secured the IPL 2025 top-4 with a dominating win over Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at home. The spotlight not only is on the match but more so on GT skipper Shubman Gill's social media viral post, to which all fans are absolutely certain was a sarcastic remark against Virat Kohli.
Gujarat's Comeback Statement at Chinnaswamy
In a thriller at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Gujarat Titans humiliated RCB by 8 wickets, quieting the home crowd. While Bengaluru had started the IPL 2025 season in superlative fashion, the team disintegrated on home turf. Virat Kohli, as always, charged up the stadium with his energy and typical celebration. GT captain Shubman Gill maintained the tempo of intensity, going totally berserk every time there was a turning point in the game.
Following Gujarat’s emphatic victory, Gill took to social media and posted:
"We will focus on the game. Not on the noise."
This statement instantly caught the attention of fans, many of whom perceived it as a direct response to Kohli’s on-field theatrics.
Fan Reactions: A Heated Debate
Gill’s post sparked a flurry of reactions across social media, with fans expressing mixed opinions:
- "Shubman Gill just countered Virat Kohli’s antics during the match!"
- "We all know about whom it is. No offense to you, but Gill is the most overrated player in the country."
- "Why create controversy? Nobody teased you. Fans support their team, and they also respect you too. But now, this does not seem to be necessary."
- "First become a member of India's T20 team. Then you can speak like this."
Although Gill hasn't made it sufficiently clear whether he was directly aiming at Kohli or the receptionist population, the furore still brews in the web. Either way, Gujarat's domination on the pitch is the true cause of friction.
