India vs England: James Anderson ridicules Ravindra Jadeja©Instagram
The India vs England third Test has had its moments with two more days of play left. The first day of the contest was attended by Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja. However, one person who was talked about the most was debutant Sarfaraz Khan. After much wait and solid performances in domestic cricket, the Mumbai batsman made his debut for India. He even scored a half-century off 48 balls, the fastest by an Indian Test debutant in the post-independence era.
Sarfaraz Khan looked set to score a big goal, but a mix-up with Ravindra Jadeja meant he was left with nothing in the 62nd minute. “Sometimes there is a lack of communication, and it’s part of the game. Sometimes you are left with nothing. This kind of things happen,” Sarfaraz Khan said after the day’s match. On what Jadeja said at the end, Sarfaraz said: “He said there was a bit of miscommunication, but I said it was fine.”
A few overs after Sarfaraz Khan’s dismissal, Ravindra Jadeja completed his fourth Test century and celebrated it quite typically in his own way by swinging the bat like a sword. Now in a new video, published by Fox Cricket, you can see that James Anderson mocked Ravindra Jadeja after his celebration. The Indian star just stared at him and showed no other reaction.
“Anderson ridicules Jadeja’s sword celebration, so yeah, there’s a little spice to this one,” the caption read.
Talking about his innings, Sarfaraz Khan added that Ravindra Jadeja helped him throughout his innings. “I spoke to him at lunch time. I am that kind of batsman who likes to talk while I bat about what is happening. So, I told Jadeja to keep talking to me while I bat. He was very supportive today and spoke to him .at lunch time,” said Sarfaraz Khan.
“He told me how debutants feel and how he feels as a debutant. I was a little nervous, especially when I played my first sweep and missed. But he told me to take my time and that it would be easy. I listened to him and tried to implement it. “
