While the battle has become a trending subject on social media, there is still obscurity regarding who initiated the fight or who instigated whom. Dwelling on the same, it all seemingly started during the second over of the India Capitals innings. Sreesanth had the ball and he took his usual run-up and delivered it only to see Capitals opener Gambhir charging down the track and clobbering him for a six. Gambhir was not done with that and smashed the next ball bowled by Sreesanth for a four. After concluding the over, Sreesanth gave a long stare to Gambhir and afterwards, things eventually took an ugly turn.
