Cricketers Hardik Pandya and Surya Kumar Yadav expressed their amusement by dropping laughing emoticons in the comments section of a video. The video was a fun-filled one that caught the attention of former India coach and cricketer Ravi Shastri. He commented on the video, describing the duo as a “deadly combo.” 

The Border Gavaskar Trophy was a thrilling series that saw India emerge victorious with a 2-1 win. The performances of Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja were instrumental in securing this victory. Ashwin, with 25 wickets, was the highest wicket-taker of the series, while Jadeja was a close second with 22 wickets.

During the post-match presentation, the two all-rounders spoke highly of each other’s contributions. Jadeja praised Ashwin for his guidance and support, saying, “It feels good bowling with him. He is always passing on valuable information, such as what field to have and how to bowl to a particular batsman.”

Ashwin, in turn, acknowledged Jadeja’s role in their success and the strong bond they share. “It has been a great journey. We started a long time ago, and we wouldn’t be as lethal without each other. Ravindra gives me the freedom to be creative with the ball, and I credit him for that,” he said.
