Shortly after India’s successful 3-0 T20I series victory over Zimbabwe, Gambhir shared a collection of memes featuring his smiling photographs, something fans rarely get to see. The light-hearted post marked a sharp contrast to his usual public image.

Captioning the post, Gambhir wrote, “When the most serious person in the country smiles…” along with a laughing emoji. The memes humorously portrayed him replying cheerfully to requests for help and engaging in conversations with an unusually friendly attitude.

One meme joked, “Are we witnessing one of the rarest moments in Indian cricket?” Another featured the popular phrase, “Baby, I need a favour,” to which Gambhir humorously responded, “Your wish is my command, Madam Ji.”

The post immediately sparked a flood of reactions across social media. Many fans struggled to believe that Gambhir himself had uploaded the content, with several joking that his Instagram profile had been compromised.

One user commented, “Looks like his account has been hacked.” Another wrote, “Did his wife accidentally upload this?” while several others claimed they initially thought it was a fake account because Gambhir rarely posts humorous content.

Some users also speculated that the post could be the beginning of a promotional campaign, as celebrities often share unusual content before announcing brand collaborations.

Following the completion of the white-ball assignments, Team India will now shift its focus to the upcoming two-match Test series against Sri Lanka, beginning on August 15. The first Test will be played in Galle, while the second is scheduled in Colombo as part of the ICC World Test Championship cycle.

The BCCI has already announced India’s Test squad for the Sri Lanka tour. Saransh Jain has replaced the injured Washington Sundar, while Jasprit Bumrah and Sai Sudharsan have been included in the squad subject to fitness clearance.
