Former Indian coach Ravi Shastri’s trademark humor took center stage during the third day of the India-New Zealand first Test in Bengaluru. Shastri’s witty observation of a fan enjoying an ice cream in the stands sparked a flurry of reactions on social media.
As the match unfolded under the scorching sun, Shastri’s keen eye spotted a bulky man attempting to conceal his ice cream from the stadium’s big screen. With his signature larger-than-life style, Shastri quipped, “This is hot. You need that ice cream but someone hiding behind. He is a big unit – The Ice Cream boy!”
Shastri’s commentary didn’t end there. As the fan continued to indulge in his frozen treat, Shastri remarked, “Oh! there he goes. Out comes that cone. The ice cream disappeared and it’s only the cone left. That’s going through pretty quickly too. He is a big bloke. He is tucking into it. It’s hot.”
The off-the-cuff remark instantly became a viral sensation, showcasing Shastri’s ability to inject fun and flavor into the game with his inimitable commentary. Social media erupted with mixed reactions, with some fans relishing the lighthearted moment while others questioned its appropriateness during the intense cricketing action.
