Last week, Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) skipper KL Rahul was supposedly scolded by the franchise owner Sanjeev Goenka publicly, a video of which has gone viral. He came heavily on cricketer after Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) destroyed LSG, dominating them with the new ball in the first place and then chasing down 166 in 9.4 overs beating LSG by 10 wickets, the fastest 10-over score in T20.
While Rahul did not comment, his wife and actress Athiya Shetty shared a cryptic post to her Instagram stories. She wrote, "The calm after the storm."
Interestingly, Athiya's post comes after LSG assistant coach Lance Klusener labelled it a "robust discussion" between "two cricket lovers".

After the conversation between the two became public, reports surfaced about Rahul leaving the franchise next season. Klusener ruled out a possible dispute between the two and claimed that it is not a "big thing" for LSG.
"I see no problem in a robust discussion between two cricket lovers. For us, it is a storm in a teacup. It's not a big thing for us," he said in the pre-match press conference on Monday ahead of their clash against DC on Tuesday.
On Tuesday, a picture of KL Rahul attending a dinner hosted by Sanjeev Goenka became viral. The two can be seen embracing each other with a hug.
KL Rahul and Athiya made their relationship official on Instagram in 2020, and since then, their social media accounts have been filled with lovey-dovey posts for each other.
They tied the knot on January 23, 2023, at Suniel Shetty's farmhouse in Khandala. The duo was in a relationship for three years before they got married.
After tying the knot, in a joint post, the couple wrote, "'In your light, I learn how to love...' Today, with our most loved ones, we got married in the home that's given us immense joy and serenity. With a heart full of gratitude and love, we seek your blessings on this journey of togetherness."
The wedding was an intimate affair attended by close friends, relatives, and family members.
On the work front Athiya, who made her debut in Bollywood in 2015 with 'Hero', was last seen in 'Motichoor Chaknachoor' with Nawazuddin Siddiqui. She has turned a showstopper multiple times at fashion weeks.
