Watch: Gautam Gambhir's 'Finger On Lips' Gesture For RCB Fans After LSG's Last-Ball Win

You love him or you hate him, but you simply can't ignore him. Gautam Gambhir is a character who finds it hard to stay away from the headlines. After Lucknow Super Giants' (LSG) thrilling last-ball victory over Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 match on Monday, Gambhir's gesture towards the home fans sent social media into a frenzy. As Lucknow sealed a 1-wicket win over the Bengaluru side, Gambhir was truly fired up.

Needing just 5 runs to win from the last 6 balls, Lucknow had 3 wickets in hand and the pair of Mark Wood and Jaydev Unadkat in the middle. RCB managed to pick two wickets from those 6 balls but a fumble from the wicket-keeper Dinesh Karthik on the last ball of the over saw LSG pull off a thriller.

Gambhir was understandably pumped after his team's win. After exchanging handshakes with RCB players, he gave a 'finger on lips' gesture to the home fans. The video has now gone viral on social media.
