Gautam Gambhir angry over trolling Harshit Rana

Trolling on social media is not right and think about their mindset. Anybody’s child will play cricket, it is everyone’s moral responsibility to ensure that Indian cricket does well.”

Gambhir further said, “Don’t say anything to run your YouTube channel. If you want, target me, I can handle it but leave that kid alone and it is the same for all young stars.”
