India teammates Ishant Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja were involved in a fun moment with each other during the game between Chennai Super Kings and Delhi Capitals in Vishakhapatnam on Sunday (March 31).
The incident took place in the 15th over of DC innings when Ishant Sharma was bowling to Ravindra Jadeja. The third ball of the over was a no-ball as Ishant Sharma had overstepped while bowling to Shivam Dube. With Dube taking a single on the no-ball, Ravindra Jadeja was on strike for the free hit.
The veteran pacer bowled a brilliant yorker clocked at 145kph and Ravindra Jadeja had no answer for it. He could only squeeze it down the pitch to the bowler. Ishant Sharma picked up the ball before pretending to throw it towards Ravindra Jadeja.
However, Jadeja just turned back and did not say anything before Ishant Sharma walked towards him and said something with a smile on his face. Jadeja broke into laughter as well before the DC pacer turned back and started walking towards the bowling mark.

Talking about the game, CSK were on 129 for 6 in the 17th over at the time of writing this report. The defending champions are chasing 192 runs for their third straight win of the season. With Jadeja and MS Dhoni in the middle, CSK would be hoping that their star players guide them to a win and extend their winning start to IPL 2024.
