Gujarat Lions star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja has finally lifted the lid on what RCB skipper Virat Kohli said to him that them in splits before their IPL cla🐈sh at Rajkot.
A photo that became a part of all the memes showed Virat pointing fingers at Jadeja and sharing a laugh with Gujarat Lion’s pacer Praveen Kumar.
In an interview to The Quint, Jadeja has finally revealed what Kohli said to him during that funny c♋onversation.
“The picture was taken right before the match with RCB, where Virat started calling me ‘Rajput’. He has nicknamed me that and I feel super proud when he addresses me with that name. Virat and I are like brothers and these fun conversations are a part of our relationship,” Jadeja said.
“Everyone in the dressing room looked the same, so I thought let’s try something different. Something that is unique. Once Anil Kumble walked up to me when I was sitting with my face down. He thought I was KL Rahul and started speaking in Kannada. Beards have created a lot of confusion in the team,” Jadeja was quoted as saying by The Quint.
Jadeja was the first one to be a part of the #BreakTheBeard trend and he posted the video of his transformation on Twitter and Instagram with the caption, “Change the game on the field. Change the look in the dressing room.”
