New Delhi: Former Chennai Super Kings (CSK) batter Ambati Rayudu and ex-Team India cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu indulged in an ugly clash during the IPL 2025 match between Punjab Kings (PBKS) and CSK. It all started off with Rayudu accusing Sidhu of shifting loyalties with regard to the team backed by him, terming him as a girgit' (chameleon).

While Rayudu started laughing following his remark, Sidhu reacted strongly with his reaction going viral on social media. "What you are saying is completely wrong. Girgit agar kisi kaa aaradhyadev hain toh woh tumhara hain (If there is someone who is like a chameleon, it is your idol)," responded the former Team India cricketer.

Rayudu has been quite vocal with his reactions during IPL 2025, openly expressing his admiration for CSK and MS Dhoni . The former CSK batter also had an intense discussion with former Team India batting coach Sanjay Bangar regarding the role of Rohit Sharma in the Mumbai Indians (MI) setup.
The interaction initially began with Bangar highlighting the importance of Rohit with regard to decision-making, stating that he could provide inputs to MI captain Hardik Pandya.
Rayudu expressed his disagreement with the viewpoint, stating that a captain needs to be left alone. "I don't think Hardik needs inputs. You cannot have 10 people in his ear like last year," he added. "You have never led an IPL team. Here is a guy (Rohit) who has led MI to multiple titles," responded Bangar.
PBKS defeated CSK by 18 runs in their IPL 2025 match, resulting in the Chennai-based franchise suffering their fourth loss in five matches.
