Watch: Gautam Gambhir turns Virat Kohli in wild celebrations after India's Oval Test win

India National Cricket Team head coach Gautam Gambhir is a passionate man, but he carries a cold-hearted personality and doesn't show a lot of emotions during the matches.

But that changed when India pulled off an iconic victory against England in the fifth Test at Kennington Oval in London, as Gautam Gambhir showed his true emotions and celebrated like a kid.

Mohammed Siraj bowls out Gus Atkinson to guide India to a win

On the final day of the fifth Test match, England needed just 35 runs for the victory, and they started off with a couple of boundaries.

However, India bounced back in style as Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna quickly dismissed Jamie Smith, Jamie Overton, and Josh Tongue to leave England reeling at 9-357.

Then, Gus Atkinson showcased a good fight before Mohammed Siraj hit the final nail in the coffin to bowl England out for 367 in 85.1 overs and help India win by 6 runs.

Atkinson was trying to hit boundaries during the end stages to ensure that the injured Chris Woakes doesn't come on strike. Siraj saw this as a wicket-taking opportunity and nailed a 143 kmph yorker to rattle the stumps of Gus Atkinson for 17 runs.

He pulled off his trademark celebration after getting the job done, and the party started on the ground and in the stands, with the Indians going berserk.

A few metres away, inside the Indian dressing room, raw and unfiltered emotions of the support staff were seen, and the BCCI media team made sure to record everything.

As the 10th wicket fell, Gautam Gambhir, Morne Morkel, and every other member of the India support staff roared and erupted in wild celebrations.

A never-before-seen avatar of Gautam Gambhir was seen as he went crazy and jumped into the bowling coach Morne Morkel, who lifted him like a baby. Gautam Gambhir was also seen passionately screaming in Morne Morkel's ears before landing a few kisses.

Teary-eyed Gautam Gambhir's celebrations gave similar vibes to those of Virat Kohli, who is also popular for going wild with his celebrations and showing plenty of raw emotions.
