All-rounder Ravindra Jadeja might have scored a maiden century on the day 2 of India vs West Indies 2018 first test match at Saurashtra Cricket Association, Rajkot but his casual attitude baffled Indian skipper Virat Kohli. So here’s what happened. In the 10th over of the match, when Shimron Hetmyer was on the crease batting for West Indies, Jadeja decided to tease the batsman who was in the bid of sneaking a single after Jadeja got the ball. While Ambris had already left the crease, both batsmen ended up appearing on the same end. Ravindra Jadeja gets a maiden century.

Now, instead of throwing it towards one of the fielders, Jadeja causally walked towards the stumps with the ball in his hand and hit the bails. This did not go down well with the skipper Virat Kohli and Ravichandran Ashwin. Fortunately, Hetmyer did not the crease and got run-out. Watch the video.

The clip evoked several reactions from the netizens and they posted tweets on the incident. Check out a few tweets below.

“Thats the beauty of Jadeja,” read a tweet.

“Nononono he is amazing player Wants always ENJOY every moment,” read another post.

Another netizen tweeted, “The run out was amazing india at a best.”

Jadeja spoke about the incident during the post-match conference and said that since the batsman was far away he knew he could walk to get the bails ripped off.  “I kept walking (towards the stumps) and suddenly I saw him running and I had to throw the ball at the wicket. I can’t imagine that (if I’d missed the stumps). I knew if I could go close to the stumps, I could get him,” said Jadeja.
