Let us tell you here that during the Ranji match at Ferozeshah Kotla ground in Delhi in 2015, there was a fight between Gautam Gambhir and Bengal captain Manoj Tiwari. Since then, there has been enmity between the two former cricketers.
Ganguly was included in the team?
Manoj Tiwari said in an interview, ‘I remember Sourav Ganguly attended the CAB (Cricket Association of Bengal). Gautam Gambhir was at that time talking about Sourav Ganguly. Then Gambhir said, Ganguly brought Jack in the team and you also came after him. Then I told this to Ganguly. He just said ‘Ok’ and let the matter go. It was my duty to tell them this. After that, all the expectations of a conversation or meeting between us ended.
Gambhir threatens Manoj
Actually, he was standing deep sleep during the Ranji match and was abusing batsman Manoj Tiwari. Tiwari had said, ‘I never heard anyone using such abusive words. If someone abuses your mother, then you should not remain silent. I am not a kind of person who listens to slander. I then asked him, Goti Bhai, why are you talking like this. In front of him he said, you meet me at night, I will kill you. I said, do whatever you want to do at night.
Gambhir fined 50 percent of match fees
Regarding the controversy with Gambhir, Tiwari further said, ‘The match was being played in Delhi. Meanwhile, the umpire intervened and took Gambhir away and then the over was over and I left the non-stroke. He came to the mid-off and started abusing me again. The umpire could not do anything more than this. He was a big player, so the umpires were afraid that he could misuse his influence against him. No player ever talked to me like this. Then there was a fierce scuffle between the two players. Gambhir was fined 50 percent of the match fees for this incident.
