After days of social media buzz, Shubman Gill has finally addressed the rumored fallout with Hardik Pandya during the IPL 2025 Eliminator between Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians. The tension began at the toss, where an awkward moment between the two former teammates went viral. Later, Hardik’s aggressive celebration after dismissing Gill added fuel to speculations of an ego clash.

Fans speculated a personal rivalry, especially after the two had shared a close bond during their title-winning campaign with GT in 2022. However, Gill silenced all noise with an Instagram post stating “Nothing but love,” alongside a collage of him and Pandya.

Gill’s post signals mutual respect, even in the heat of competition. Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians move on to Qualifier 2, while Gill shifts focus to leading India in the upcoming Test series against England.

This saga proves that not all viral moments mean personal vendettas.
