It seems there's no end to the Sreesanth-Gambhir spat. The former Indian teammates were involved in a war of words during a Legends League game on Wednesday, with the umpires stepping in to calm them both down during the match in Surat.

A video circulating on social media also captured a tense moment earlier, where Sreesanth, playing for Gujarat Giants, glared at Gambhir of India Capitals after conceding a six and a four. Gambhir, unimpressed, returned the stare, leading to a verbal clash.

However, Sreesanth uploaded a video on Instagram soon after, where he ranted against Gautam Gambhir, stating that the former Indian opener always fights with his colleague.

And on Thursday, Sreesanth, in an Instagram live, claimed Gambhir kept calling him a fixer. The 40-year-old said Gambhir didn't even spare the umpires when they tried to calm him down.

"Just want to say this, he kept on calling me, on live television, on the centre wicket, I had not used a single bad word, I had not even used a single abusive word to him. I've only said, what are you saying, what are you saying? I, in fact, kept laughing in a sarcastic way because he kept calling me fixer, fixer, you're a fixer! F**k off, fixer! This is the language which is used on live television. Even he told the umpires in the same language when they were trying to control him. In fact, I just moved away but he kept on saying the same word again and again," Sreesanth said.
