LSG’s Digvesh Rathi mimics Virat Kohli’s ‘pocket book celebration’ in IPL 2025 – WATCH | Cricket Information – The Occasions of India

The long-lasting ‘pocket book celebration’ is as soon as once more within the highlight. Made well-known by Virat Kohli, the celebration has resurfaced in IPL 2025, this time courtesy of Lucknow Tremendous Giants’ leg-spinner Digvesh Rathi.
Throughout LSG’s conflict in opposition to Punjab Kings, Rathi pulled out the old-school ‘pocket book celebration’ after dismissing Punjab opener Priyansh Arya in a high-stakes run chase.

Arya, who gained fame for hitting six sixes within the Delhi Premier League, was strolling again to the pavilion when Rathi mimicked the well-known gesture—holding out his left hand like a web page and pretending to jot down a dismissal.
The transfer echoed the 2017 alternate between Kesrick Williams and Virat Kohli, which Kohli famously responded to throughout a T20I in Hyderabad in 2019.
Earlier, Lucknow Tremendous Giants posted 171/7 in 20 overs, with Nicholas Pooran scoring a vital 44 and Ayush Badoni including 41.

Arshdeep Singh was the standout bowler for Punjab, ending with figures of three/43.
In response, Punjab Kings placed on a dominant batting show, chasing down the goal in simply 16.2 overs.
Prabhsimran Singh led the cost with a blistering 69 off 34 balls, whereas Shreyas Iyer remained unbeaten on 52 alongside Nehal Wadhera, who contributed 43*.
Punjab Kings will now face Rajasthan Royals on the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Worldwide Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur, Chandigarh, on Saturday.
