'Are you above Supreme Court'? Sreesanth slams gautam Gambhir after altercation

Both cricketers indulged in a war of words on the field and Sreesanth later claimed that Gambhir called him a 'fixer' during the fight.

Following the incident, Gambhir took to social media to post an old picture of himself along with the caption - "Smile when the world is all about attention!".

While he found support from some of his old teammates, Sreesanth has replied with his view in the post's comments.

"You have exceeded the boundaries of a sportsman and a brother, and above all, you represent the people. Yet, you continue to engage in conflicts with every cricketer. What is the matter with you? All I did was smile and observe, and you labeled me a fixer? Seriously? Are you above the Supreme Court? You have no authority to speak in such a manner and say whatever you please. You even verbally abused the umpires, and yet you speak of smiling?

"You are an arrogant and utterly classless individual who lacks any form of respect for those who supported you. Until yesterday, I always held respect for you and your family. However, you used the derogatory term "fixer" not just once, but seven or eight times. You even resorted to using the F-word towards the umpires and myself, persistently trying to provoke me. Anyone who has experienced what I have endured would never forgive you. Deep down, you know that what you said and did was wrong. Im sure even God wont forgive you. You didn't even come to the field aftwr that. Come on, God is watching everything," Sreesanth commented on Gambhir's post.
