Pakistan cricketer Agha Salman opened up about his text to Virat Kohli after the batter fought with Naveen-ul-Haq and Gautam Gambhir during the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023. He revealed how the RCB batter reacted after he got to know about the text. 

Even though one year has passed by, Virat Kohli and Naveen-ul-Haq‘s fight during the IPL 2023 is still fresh in the minds of many. After the game between RCB and LSG in Lucknow, the players of both teams were engaged in a verbal spat and things were extremely serious. 

It all started during the game after both the players had a go at each other. However, things got intense after the game as both were seen to have verbal spats with each other. Players from both sides got involved and even Gautam Gambhir had a heated altercation with Virat Kohli. 

While the duo were involved in a verbal spat, Pakistan player Agha Salman tried to cool down Virat Kohli. The all-rounder at that time had sent a text to India batter on Instagram. The development was revealed by Salman’s teammate Imam-ul-Haq’s interaction on the Honest Hour Podcast. 

Imam-ul-Haq revealed that Agha Salman texted Virat Kohli to take it easy. The opening batter stated: “Kohli bhai, easy ho jao. Kya ho gaya hai? [Kohli brother, take it easy. What happened?].” 

During that podcast, Imam-ul-Haq also revealed Virat Kohli’s bond with Shadab Khan, saying that both of them are Punjabi and hence they share a good bond. He had said: 

“Virat is an extremely funny person because he is a Delhi lad and is pure Punjabi. So he mostly speaks in Punjabi. Since we’ve played a lot of cricket with India in the last two years, hence Shadab and he share a good bond.”
