Ahead of the much-anticipated IPL 2025 clash between Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals, fans were treated to a lighthearted moment featuring Team India’s young guns Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill. A fun exchange between the two at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad has gone viral, showing their off-field chemistry and giving fans a reason to smile before the showdown.

“He’s Turning Red!” – Jaiswal Pokes Fun

In a video shared by Rajasthan Royals’ official Instagram, Jaiswal is seen spotting Gill from afar and immediately teasing him by saying,

“Dekho sir, lal ho gaya hai poora!” (Look sir, he’s blushing completely!)

Rajasthan’s batting coach Vikram Rathour chimed in with a cheeky reply, suggesting it was the sun that made Gill turn red. But Jaiswal wasn’t buying it.

“It’s not the heat… he’s going fair now!”
The friendly banter had everyone around laughing and fans commenting on the wholesome bond between the two Indian openers.
