Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) defeated Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) by 7 wickets on Friday in the Indian Premier League (IPL). At Bengaluru's M Chinnaswamy Stadium, former RCB captain Virat Kohli and KKR coach Gautam Gambhir were spotted holding hands. The two got into a fight during the previous season.
