Now Ravindra Jadeja is celebrating the first wicket of his return to cricket in the ‘Pushpa’ style. Jadeja’s floral style celebration came after Sri Lankan batsman Dinesh Chandimal took the wicket.
Chandimal took the wicket in the 10th over of the Sri Lankan innings. In the second delivery, the star was trying to get off the track and play. But the Sri Lankan batsman could not connect the ball. Ishant Kishan shook the stumps without any errors. Soon after, Ravindra Jadeja was imitating Allu Arjun’s trendy action in Pushpa.

He conceded just 28 runs in four overs. Jadeja hit four off four balls and scored three runs. Jadeja, who reached the crease in the fourth over, only supported Shreyas Iyer (57 off 28 balls) who was playing in good form.
