Indian allrounder Ravindra Jadeja is not only a splendid cricketer but also uses his words quite wisely on social media platforms as well. Today he had an epic exchange on Twitter with E-commerce giant Flipkart. The tweet was about one of India’s best allrounders visiting the Flipkart office on January 19 and they asked the fans to guess who they think he was. The post read- “India’s new all-rounder is visiting us on January 19th. One of the best in India! Any guesses who it is?”

Jadeja replied to the tweet and asked them why they didn’t consult him before making the announcement since he is playing a match on the 19th which is the 2nd ODI against England at Cuttack. Jaddu wrote- “@Flipkart Why this Kolaveri di? Should have informed me before announcing? Anyway, got a match on the 19th… let’s push this to 20th?”

They tried to make a comeback in their reply and said Jadeja you are one of our favorite players but there seems to be some confusion and that they weren’t referring to him as the allrounder who was visiting them. “@imjadeja You are one of our favorite players. But looks like there was some confusion. We weren’t talking about you. #AllRounderOnFlipkart”

@imjadeja You are also a fan of the great all-rounder? Woah, we didn't know 🙂 https://t.co/pKC9w1OzZ5

The Saurashtra lad certainly didn’t receive it well and corrected them that he was indeed India’s leading allrounder. “@Flipkart Fan?! I AM India’s leading all-rounder!”

He also posted a video asking people to help him figure out the allrounder Flipkart was talking about.

The next reply was- “@imjadeja Sir Jadeja. No offense. But we know this all-rounder will be the ideal for tons of Indians. Unsure if you can match up to him.”

Jaddu closed it asking them to stop the trolling- “Stop trolling @Flipkart”
