Gambhir retired from all forms of cricket in December 2018, later joined politics and was elected as a Member of the Parliament from East Delhi Lok Sabha constituency.
Recently, the 37-year-old former opener was all over the news after Pakistan fast bowler Mohammad Irfan claimed that he ended Gambhir's white-ball career.
Irfan said that Gambhir struggled against him during Pakistan's tour of India in 2012/13 and was afraid of even making eye contact with him. "I think his career ended because of me. After that he never returned to the team," Mohammad Irfan told SAMAA TV.
"He was getting bowled off full-length deliveries and his pull shots against my shorter balls also didn't work. He got out thrice to me on that tour."
"He was scared of me clearly. He wouldn't look me in the eye even in the nets. There are people who when scared avoid you, don't make eye contact and walk the other way."
Pakistan had toured India in 2012/13 to play a two-match T20 International series and a three-match One-Day International series.
