[Watch] " Espresso hota hai S waala" - Sarfaraz Khan and Mohammed Siraj engage in banter during India’s fun headshots session before BGT 2024-25
Members of Team India played a game of Ask The Next One during their headshot session ahead of Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) 2024-25. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) posted a video of the same on their official social media account.
The members of the Indian squad assembled for their head shot shoots and during that, a player asked the question which was supposed to be answered by anyone, not in a particular order. Rishabh Pant, India's wicketkeeper-batter on the tour, kickstarted it with the question:
"What was the first thing he did as soon as he landed in Australia?"
Jasprit Bumrah answered the question, replying that he and his wife went to the grocery store to get some groceries for their son, Angad. Later on in the video, when Abhimanyu Easwaran asked what was the person's favorite coffee order, Mohammed Siraj replied:
"Excuse me, can I get an expresso (Espresso)?"
Sarfaraz Khan, who was present there, was quick to correct the pacer and a hilarious exchange took place between the duo.
"Fir Espresso bole tum. S waala hota hai, S..S...S (Espresso is with S)," Sarfaraz quipped.
Siraj then asked Virat Kohli, what was his best knock in the country, to which the 36-year-old replied:
"My best knock in Australia is definitely my 100 at Perth. 2018/19 series. I thought that was the toughest pitch that I played on. It was great to get a 100 on that wicket."
Washington Sundar asked who is that one famous person in their contacts list. KL Rahul was tasked with replying to it and he said:
"Virat Kohli"
Take a look at the video below:
The video had yet more interesting answers, with Abhimanyu Easwaran answering that he had spent four to five thousand of daily allowance so far and pacer Prasidh Krishna stating that the only Australian phrase he had picked up was "G'day mate".
