New Delhi: Ravindra Jadeja and Jasprit Bumrah were seen having a friendly banter with Ravichandran Ashwin on the flight from Chennai to Kanpur where India will face Bangladesh in the 2nd Test. Both the cricketers shared some good-natured jokes and memes inspired by MS Dhoni. The lighthearted moment was captured on video by BCCI and shared on its social media handle with the caption ‘A Journey Full of Smiles’.
In the video shared by the BCCI, the players were seen having fun, and during one such moment, Ravindra Jadeja and Jasprit Bumrah teamed up to pull the leg of star all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin. Fresh off a match-winning performance in the first Test against Bangladesh, Ashwin found himself on the receiving end of a playful prank involving an iconic MS Dhoni-inspired meme.
Looking into the video, Ashwin can be seen wearing a cool pair of shades on the flight, and Bumrah cheekily said, ‘Anna for a reason’ as the camera panned towards the off-spinner. Jadeja who was sitting with Ashwin joined in on the fun as well, repeating what Bumrah said and then loudly saying ‘Ash anna’.
Ashwin said ‘They are just bullying me, (a) pour soul,’. Replaying to the ‘Player of the Match’ in Chennai, Bumrah replied back stating ‘words of appreciation’ while giving a thumbs up to the camera.
