Gujarat Titans head coach Ashish Nehra was in some mood ahead of his team’s contest against the Kolkata Knight Riders today at the Eden Gardens today. However, his moments of joy arrived at the expense of someone suffering a few seconds of immense pain.

Nehra’s former teammate in the Indian national team, and now a renowned broadcaster Murali Kartik was designated to conduct the Toss for today’s day fixture, and was thus seen casually interacting with the former near the practice pitches.
However, quite famous for being a prankster of the highest order, Nehra made sure to have some fun with Kartik and how! Amidst the chat between the two, the former hit Kartik on his crotch area out of nowhere, leaving him in excruciating pain for some few seconds.

While the impact on the groin area seemed to be a gentle one, it was surely painful enough as Kartik was instantaneously down on the floor in immense pain, while Nehra was obviously seeing the funny side of it with all his teeth out.
Later, Nehra did help his beloved mate get up on his feet, and Kartik too then hilariously tried to hit him back in a similar fashion, but to no avail.
As if Kartik was not embarrassed already, the video of the incident was played out with him calling the match at the commentary box. As the camera panned towards the Titans dug out, Nehra yet again was seen laughing while watching the same, while poor Kartik had only one word to say – “Unexplainable”.
