Cricket like many sports, often surprises fans with its unexpected moments, and unexpected on-field events add a comic touch. One such entertaining incident took place between India and the West Indies on the first day on 3 (Saturday, 4 October) during the first Test match at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
Mohammad Sirraj gave a initial wicket for his team by rejecting Tagnarin Chanderpall at the eighth position of the second innings of the West Indies. All -rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy took a stunning catch at Square leg. Chanderpall, who went out for duck in the first innings, scored eight runs off 23 balls.

In a video tweeted by a user on X (formerly known as Twitter), Ravindra Jadeja appealed for a leg-verse against the West Indies, who was against opening the batsman John Campbell. However, the left -arm spinner lost his balance while running back and became flat on his back.
Jadeja made extra effort in both delivery and appeal, but the umpire ruled in favor of the West Indies batsman. Indian captain Shubman Gill decided not to review after consulting the teammates. After the video went viral, the fans responded with the reactions to cheer on social media.

Ravindra Jadeja has been a pioneer for wicket -taking for India in the second innings
India’s bowlers dominated the first test against the West Indies, keeping the hosts under control. At the time of writing, the visitors struggled at 98/6 after 36 overs, at the crease with Khari Pierre and Justin Greaves.
Ravindra Jadeja led India’s attack with three wickets, while Mohammad Sirj, Kuldeep Yadav and Washington Sundar claimed one wicket each. India can win by an innings, as they are unlikely to bat in the second innings.
This strong performance follows India’s 2–2 draw in Anderson-Tendulkar 2025 Trophy and will add valuable points to its ICC World Test Championship 2025-27 campaign.

Ravindra Jadeja remained unbeaten on 104, including six fours and five sixes. The pair added 206 runs for the fifth wicket.
