NEW DELHI: Virat Kohli and
Ravindra Jadeja
have shared a bond since their under-19 days, having both been part of the victorious 2008 Under-19 World Cup team led by Virat. Their camaraderie extends beyond the field, evident in their strong friendship.
During the
IPL 2024
opening match between Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Virat and Jadeja engaged in a hilarious exchange, sparking laughter across social media platforms.
The incident occurred in the 11th over of RCB’s innings when Jadeja was bowling to
Cameron Green
.
Green tapped a delivery back to Jadeja, who was into his third over.
Known for his brisk pace between deliveries, Jadeja jokingly threatened to pass the ball to Kohli before swiftly returning to his bowling mark for the next delivery.
In response, Virat humorously asked Jadeja to give Green a moment to catch his breath.
“Abey sans to lene de usko (let him (Cameron Green) breathe, man) ,” said Virat.
The conversation between two friends Jadeja and Virat went viral in quick time.
CSK went on to defeat RCB by six wickets to kick off their IPL 2024 campaign in style.
