Did Virat really show Naveen the boot? Watch the viral video and decide for yourself

Monday (May 1) is probably not a day that any Indian cricket lover will remember. Because, the 43rd match of IPL 2023 was played on this day. In this match, Lucknow Super Giants Vs. Royal Challengers Bangalore teams were facing each other. The news of the fight between Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir during this match is going viral on social media. In that, Virat took off his boot to hit Afghanistan batsman Navin-ul-Haq during the match. It is being said that various allegations have been made against Virat. A photo is also going viral, in which Virat is seen touching the shoes. What exactly is this controversy, let’s find out…

In fact, the whole affair started in the 17th over of Lucknow’s innings. Amit Mishra was batting with Naveen ul Haq on the field. Meanwhile, Amit and Naveen hit some brilliant shots. Looking at it, the Bangalore team was in a strong position in the match. However, even though the challenge was short, it was being argued that these batsmen would wrest victory from the hands of Bangalore. Virat then started sledging both of them. Meanwhile, photos and videos of Virat touching the shoe went viral.

A video related to the match has been shared by different users. From this it can be understood that Virat did not remove his shoe to hit Naveen. He was showing the mud on his shoes. All this happened after an argument between Virat and Naveen. So this is connecting with Navin’s boot.

Dear Wazhma,
We felt it for our Afghan brothers and sisters this time. They are not any dirt under the shoes. Virat Kohli did it very wrong, and we strongly condemn his ill gestures. Hats off to Naveen for jerking off his hands during the handshake. pic.twitter.com/r3qLNqWVnf

Naveen alleged that Virat was spoiling the pitch with his boots. In an argument between Virat and Naveen, Amit Mishra and the umpires calmed both of them down. The umpire then went with Virat. Meanwhile, Virat started showing the umpires the dirt under his boots. One saw the video and believed that Virat was directly showing the boot to Naveen. However, it is not clear whether Virat is showing the boot to hit Naveen or the soil on the boot. Now the former cricketers are giving different reactions on this matter.
