BCCI posts a photo of Indian player with hidden face, Pandya gives hilarious reply

BCCI posts a photo of an Indian player with a face hidden by a football, people thought it was Hardik Pandya but the batsman gives a hilarious reply.

BCCI on twitter posted a picture of a player in Indian team’s training kit with the face covered in order to make fans guess the player behind the ball on its twitter handle.

Many thought that it was Hardik Pandya behind the ball as the fans kept guessing the mystery person in the picture. However, to everyone surprise Pandya played as a spoilsport with his reply.

After a while, the Indian all-rounder made a reply by saying “Not me guys but @rdchahar1… saw the ball hit him in training”. Thus, it seems that Pandya played a huge spoiler for BCCI, as they thought of making the fans think for a long while.

But while looking closer, the picture does not even remotely resemble Rahul Chahar. Thus, it seems that Pandya was trying to prank with the fans, in order to have his own moment of fun.

However, the fans did not fall for it and instantly said that they do not believe that the person in the picture is Rahul Chahar and not him. With this, Pandya really had a big fail moment on twitter, where he tried to scapegoat Chahar to fool the fans.

Meanwhile, Team India is playing a series against South Africa, in which T20 matches are going on. However, the first T20 match scheduled to be played was called off due to the rain at Dharamshala.

Now, the Indian contingent has flown to Mohali for the second T20 match, and the third T20 will be played at Bangalore followed by the test matches and ODIs.
