Video Shows England Star Ridiculing Ravindra Jadeja’s Sword Celebration Post Sarfaraz Khan’s Run Out

The third India vs England Test has seen its moments with two more days of play remaining. The first day of the contest saw tons from Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja. However, one person who was talked bout the most was debutant Sarfaraz Khan. After much wait and solid performances in domestic cricket, the Mumbai batter made his India debut. He even scored a 48-ball half-century – the joint-fastest by an Indian Test debutant in the post-independence era.

Sarfaraz Khan looked poised for a big score but a mix-up with Ravindra Jadeja saw him get run out on 62. “At times there is miscommunication, and it is a part of the game. Sometimes you get run out. Such kind of things happen,” Sarfaraz Khan said after the day’s play. On what Jadeja said on the run-out, Sarfaraz said: “He said there was a bit of miscommunication, but I said it’s okay.”

A few overs after Sarfaraz Khan’s dismissal, Ravindra Jadeja went on to complete his fourth Test century and celebrated quite typically in his fashion by swinging the bat like a sword. Now in a new video, post by Fox cricket, it can be seen that James Anderson mocked Ravindra Jadeja after his celebration. The Indian star just stared at him and gave no other reaction. 

“Anderson ridiculing Jadeja’s sword celebration, so yep there’s just little bit of spice in this one,” the caption read. 

Talking about his innings, the Sarfaraz Khan added that Ravindra Jadeja helped him throughout his innings. “I talked to him at lunch time. I am that type of batter who like to talk while batting about what is going on. So, I told Jadeja to keep talking to me while I bat. He supported me a lot today and spoke to me at lunchtime,” Sarfaraz Khan said.

“He told me how the debutants feel and how he felt as a debutant. I was a bit nervous, especially when I played my first sweep and missed it. But he told me to take some time and it would be easy. I listened to him and tried implementing it.”.
