Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja celebrates in a much filmy manner after taking a wicket in the first T20I of a three-match series against Sri Lanka held in Lucknow on Thursday. Jadeja after returning to international cricket from a two-month-long injury lay-off dismissed Sri Lanka batter Dinesh Chandimal in the 10th over of the second innings.
Celebrating his wicket-taking victory, Jadeja imitated actor Allu Arjun’s popular haggede le (I will not bow down) gesture from the recent blockbuster Pushpa: The Rise.
Jadeja delivered the ball to Chandimal and to hit it he stepped out of the crease. Meanwhile, Jadeja’s ball turned and beat the outside edge before being stumped by wicketkeeper Ishan Kishan.
Taking this moment, Jadeja celebrated the wicket on the field by doing the gesture from the blockbuster Tamil movie. Video of Jadeja’s celebration is going all around the internet. See the video here:
