Former Indian cricketer Wasim Jaffer on Saturday outlined a hilarious mistake of ‘Bapu’ Axar Patel after his record-shattering five-wicket haul on Day 3 of India vs New Zealand 1st Test. Wasim Jaffer took to his Twitter handle and shared a picture of Axar Patel along with Ravichandran Ashwin and wicket-keeper KS Bharat. The still was shared by the BCCI, however, Jaffer reshared it pointing out Axar’s ‘only mistake’ of Day 3.
Jaffer pointed that the date on the ball which the 27-year-old cricketer was holding as a memoir was wrong. The ball which Axar was holding had the date written as 14th October 2021. The former Indian cricketer also corrected him and stated that today’s date is 27th November.

Furthermore, Jaffer lauded Axar Patel’s five-wicket haul in his own unique style on his Koo handle and shared a post saying that ‘eating 2 Kiwis one hour before bedtime on a daily basis is linked to considerable improvements to both sleep quality and quantity. It also helps you fall asleep faster. Because Kiwi fruit is rich in serotonin, the happy hormone.’
