Former India international Manoj Tiwary took to social media on Sunday (Janaury 12) to clarify his stance on his viral quote about India head coach Gautam Gambhir that had done the rounds over the past few days.

In an interview with News18 Bangla earlier this week, Tiwary had been asked for his opinion on Gambhir following India's 3-1 Test series loss to Australia. His quotes from the interview had gone viral after he called Gambhir a "hypocrite".

"Gautam Gambhir is a hypocrite. He doesn’t do what he says. Where is the captain (Rohit) from? Mumbai. Where is Abhishek Nayar from? Mumbai. They got a chance to put a Mumbai player in the forefront. There is no one to speak for Jalaj Saxena. He performs well but keeps quiet," Tiwary had said.
