WATCH | How Irfan Pathan celebrated big brother Yusuf’s Ranji Trophy hundred
Yusuf Pathan scored a ton in both innings for Baroda.
Yusuf Pathan began the Ranji season with a high note with centuries in both innings of Baroda’s first match against Madhya Pradesh. In the first innings, Yusuf hit 111 while in the second he scored 136.
His knock in the second innings was more special as brother Irfan was at the other end when Yusuf reached the landmark.
Irfan shared a video of his celebration on social media when elder sibling Yusuf hit a six to reach his hundred. “That’s how the big man @iamyusufpathan got to his 100 #pureemotion #sheerjoy #love,” Irfan wrote on instagram.
In the video, it can be seen that the moment the ball leaves Yusuf’s bat and crosses the boundary line Irfan drops his bat on the ground and punches the air in sheer joy. He then walks over to his brother to give him a warm hug and celebrate the moment with him.
