Hours after playing a match-winning knock to help India take a 2-1 lead in the five-match series against Zimbabwe, star batter Ruturaj Gaikwad took social media by storm with his epic post on social media.
Gaikwad has been in brilliant form in the ongoing tour of Zimbabwe, with the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captain registering scores of 77 and 49 in the second and third T20Is, respectively.
As India took a 2-1 lead over Zimbabwe in the series on Wednesday, Gaikwad took to Instagram to share a hilarious post. While suggesting he is "ahead of the trend", Gaikwad shared a picture of his T20I cap, with number 88 engraved on it.
For the unversed, Gaikwad is the 88th player to play for India. Gaikwad connected the number with 7, a number which has been made famous in the cricketing world by fans of CSK and India legend MS Dhoni. "I am ahead of the trend," Gaikwad captioned the post on his Instagram story.
