SL vs IND: Krishnappa Gowtham, Ruturaj Gaikwad Engage In Banter | Cricket News
India all-rounder Krishnappa Gowtham was involved in entertaining banter with his Chennai Super Kings (CSK) teammate Ruturaj Gaikwad on Thursday during a “Language Exchange” session organised by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). A fun clip from their language session was shared by the BCCI on its official Twitter handle. “Presenting The Language Exchange with #TeamIndia’s Krishnappa Gowtham and Ruturaj Gaikwad. Banter, Laughter, Cricket sledges,” BCCI captioned the video on the microblogging site. In the clip, we can see Gowtham telling Gaikwad about some Kannada terms. Gaikwad, in turn, returns the favour by teaching Gowtham a few Marathi words.
In the footage, Gowtham also explained to Gaikwad how to say the phrase “Kannada” properly.
