Rinku seemed a bit baffled and uncomfortable.
After the match between Delhi Capitals (DC) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the Arun Jaitley Stadium, a video went viral on social networks that surprised many fans. In the clip, DC Spinner Kuldeep Yadav was playing playfully hitting Kkr Batter Rinku Singh twice, which left people confused about what really happened.
Rinku Singh was surprised by the gesture of Kuldeep Yadav
The moment came shortly after Delhi lost his second consecutive game at home, falling 14 races against the defenders. In the video, Kuldeep, Rinku and some other players were seen joking and laughing together. Then, out of nowhere, Kuldeep slapped Rinku, who seemed playful at first. However, Rinku seemed a bit baffled and uncomfortable. When Kuldeep slapped him for the second time, Rinku seemed visibly annoying and had a word with him.
As the clip had no audio, it is not clear how exactly or how was the mood. The commentators also did not argue the moment during their talk after the game. However, many fans on social networks expressed anger and disappointment for Kuldeep actions.
