The biggest news came out of London, which is heading for the fifth and last test between England and India, was the verbal gap between coach Gautam Gambhir and the curator of the Oval field Lee Fortis. Both men were seen that they did it in the War of Words on Tuesday 29. July, with Gambhir heard to have some strong words that she should tell Fortis.
India’s head coach was heard as Lee Fortis said, “You’re just earthly here.” As the fight continued, Gambhir told Fortis to “go, report what you want to report, you are just the foundation.” Gambhir also threw several panels.
Later, the coach of the Sitanshu Kotak batting came and took the curator away and discussed with him, even though Gambhir was still arguing with Fortis from a distance. The real reason for the quarrel was revealed today by India. The curator was dissatisfied with the fact that the Indians were throwing a square area and protested against it. That was when Gambhir lost his cool and began to argue with Groundsman.

Fortis interact with the media and tried to interfere with the incident. The oval curator said he had never met Gambhir before Tuesdays when the reporters tried to push and ask him what turned out on the day.
“It’s a pretty big game that comes. It’s not my work to be happy with him (Gautam Gambhir) or not. I never met him today. You saw what it was this morning,” Fortis said.
Asked why Gambhir was so animated, Fortis reporters told him to ask him a question themselves. The oval curator claimed to be fine and said there was nothing to hide.
That’s okay, I’m fine. We have nothing to hide, ”Fortis said.
When the reporters were still pushing to answer, Fortis decided to shorten the conversation and leave and said he didn’t want to be rude.
“I don’t want to be rude, but you don’t ask anything. You’re just, you don’t ask anything,” Fortis said.
