Punjab’s middle order batsman Gurkeerat Mann scored a splendid century against Chhattisgarh in Ranji Trophy season 2017-18. But it was not his century that hogged the limelight but the way the all-rounder celebrated it. As touched the century, Mann lifting his bat acknowledging (like everyone does) his teammates in the dressing room. But then, while at it, Mann left his bat on the ground and then abruptly, laid down on the ground as if he was posing! At this point, his teammate Anmolpreet Singh was obviously puzzled.

In fact, not just Singh, even Chhattisgarh wicketkeeper Manoj Singh looked amused by the unusual celebration by the 27-year-old.

Here’s the video of the bizarre celebration:
