Duleep Trophy | Twitter goes gaga as Harshit Rana brings back his ‘flying kiss’ celebration scalping Ruturaj Gaikwad
Celebrations are often linked with bowlers taking wickets, and Harshit Rana has taken these celebrations to the next level. This was vividly showcased during the match between India D and India C in Anantapur, where Rana brought back his flying kiss celebration after dismissing Ruturaj Gaikwad.
On the final ball of the fifth over, Rana delivered a fuller-length ball from around the wicket, targeting the leg stump. The ball exhibited unexpected bounce and drifted wider than Sudharsan anticipated. The Tamil Nadu batter attempted a flick towards the leg side but misjudged the bounce. Consequently, the ball edged off the bat and flew towards the wicketkeeper, Srikar Bharat. Bharat, quick on his feet, dove to his right and made an exceptional catch. Rana, visibly elated, leapt into the air and erupted in a spectacular celebration.
Moments later, Rana was back in action, performing his signature celebration after dismissing India C captain Ruturaj Gaikwad in the seventh over. The scene instantly evoked memories of the Indian Premier League, where Rana popularized the 'flying kiss' gesture with Mayank Agarwal, sparking a frenzy on Twitter.
Celebration is back!!
