The 25-year old, who is known for keeping his calm and staying cool, was at his light-hearted best as he switched out his tennis racquet for a cricket bat and lobbed a few balls into the stands, displaying solid stroke playing skills.
He later posted this video on his Facebook page, humorously captioning it as “Should have played cricket” and also expressed his joy at having started the year off right with a win.
Well-wishing fans were quick to congratulate him before adding that they were happy to see him represent the nation with a racquet even as nearly everyone prefers the bat. The commentators were also jovial and joked along about Yuki’s not inconsiderable cricketing talents he had chosen to display on the tennis court.
Bhambri, who is now the world no. 116, is in action on Wednesday in his Round of 16 match against PH Herbert who is currently ranked 81st in the world.
