Watch: MCG crowd imitates England all-rounder Ronnie Irani: The crowd along with England all-rounder Ronnie Irani bring a smile on the faces of the tensed England supporters who were sure about Australia’s win in the ODI match. Ronnie shares a light moment with the Australian fans at the MCG while fielding on the boundary line, when the crowd followed him while he was warming up.
Irani was probably expected to bowl the next over, fielding on the fence he started to stretch his back and sides. As he started loosening up, a group in the crowd behind him all of a sudden decide to imitate him in what he does. And soon everyone in that section of the stands was seen moving to their right and to the left, catching up with his movements. As soon as he realized that there were at least a hundred of them copying him, Ronnie Irani increased his frequency of the repetition and so did the crowd.
There was England skipper Naseer Hussain fielding in the covers and watching the entire scene, he could not help his laughter either. Gradually Ronnie increased the intensity of his movements and so do the followers and he fades it off in motion.
This video is a proof of the connection, the bond players share with the spectators, it was neither an attempt to tease him, nor did he take it in that sense; a healthy and light way of keeping alive and charged up on the field is to keep up with the chants and cheering of the crowd.
Australia batting at 231-3 needed only 21 to win from 50 balls with 7 wickets in hand that is when the incident took place. Every eye was on the game, Australians waiting for a winning shout and England fans hoping for a miracle, when Ronnie Irani’s act followed by the fans makes the ambiance light, putting up a smile on everyone’s face.
