It seems that the Indian cricket world will always have that shred of controversy from the time Gautam Gambhir scored massively in the world cup finals. Strangely enough, this celebrated batsman decided to change his cover photo on Facebook on the very day of Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s birthday. Many of the netizens have crinkled their eyebrows about this change of cover photo. This excitement has been caused even more because Gautam posted an image of the 2011 World Cup with dirt on his jersey. Jealousy much?
As Salty As Gautam Gambhir
No one can deny the contribution made by Gautam Gambhir in the 2011 world cup. It was the day when India achieved triumph against the powerful team of Sri Lanka. The match was played in the Wankhede stadium, and Gambhir scored a massive 97 out of 122 balls. This score had helped India to lift the World Cup after several years and with extreme pride. So what went wrong?
Mahendra Singh Dhoni had scored the winning run in the final match by shooting a six with his infamous helicopter shot. It seems that no one seems to remember that Gautam Gambhir had been the craftsman behind this win, and this will always be like a thorn to this veteran batsman.

Many have also stated that Gautam has officially crossed all limits of cringe posts by doing this on Dhoni’s birthday. It seems that personal glory in the World Cup has been way more important to the player rather than the win of the country!
