Even Gautam Gambhir Cannot Stop Laughing On Dinesh Karthik’s ‘Charge’
In a recent viral clip on social media, former Indian cricketer Dinesh Karthik had everyone in splits as he recalled a funny incident involving his former teammate Gautam Gambhir. Karthik jokingly labeled Gambhir as the “laziest athlete” he has ever played with, sharing a hilarious anecdote from their playing days.
The clip shows Karthik reminiscing about a time during their India A days when Gambhir refused to change a song because he did not want to get up to reach the fast-forward button. The laughter continued as Karthik recounted an incident when Gambhir asked him to pass the TV remote in his own room, unwilling to make the effort to change the channel himself.
The banter between the two former cricketers, along with the reactions of other players in the panel including Harbhajan Singh, RP Singh, Irfan Pathan, and Ajit Agarkar, had everyone in fits of laughter. It was a rare sight to see Gambhir, known for his serious demeanor on the field, laughing uncontrollably at Karthik’s hilarious revelations.
Having shared the glory of winning the 2007 T20 World Cup together for India, Gambhir and Karthik have maintained a close bond over the years. With Gambhir now rumored to be a potential candidate for the role of India’s head coach post the 2024 T20 World Cup, the timing of this light-hearted moment between the two former teammates couldn’t be more perfect.
As Gambhir continues to make his mark in the cricketing world, both as a successful player and potentially as a coach in the future, this amusing incident serves as a reminder of the lighter side of the game and the camaraderie shared among teammates both on and off the field.
