On Saturday (14th January), Team India’s star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja had an epic Twitter exchange with famous e-commerce company Flipkart.
At first, in the tweet Flipkart mentioned that India’s best all-rounder will be visiting their office on January 19 and asked the fans to guess who they think he is.
They wrote: “India’s new all-rounder is visiting us on January 19th. One of the best in India! Any guesses who it is?”

Jaddu replied to the tweet asking the company that why did they not consult him before making the announcement as he will playing a match on the 19th and asked them to push the date a day ahead ie. on 20th.
He wrote: “@Flipkart Why this Kolaveri di? Should have informed me before announcing? Anyway, got a match on the 19th… let’s push this to 20th?”

Now, the e-commerce giant replied to Jadeja’s tweet and said that you are one of our favourite players but there seems to be some confusion and they weren’t referring to him as the allrounder who will be visiting their office.
They wrote: “@imjadeja You are also a fan of the great all-rounder? Woah, we didn’t know”

Here is when Team India’s leading allrounder took a dig at Flipkart as he wrote: “@Flipkart Fan?! I AM India’s leading all-rounder!”

Though later the Flipkart wrote: “@imjadeja Sir Jadeja. No offense. But we know this all-rounder will be the ideal for tons of Indians. Unsure if you can match up to him.”
