Soon after the match, Jimmy Neesham took to social media and shared a picture with the skipper. He captioned the photo saying, "Paper, scissors, rock." In the photo, both the players were captured on the field along with the umpire; they all seem to be playing the popular game. Jimmy and Rahul will be playing in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 in Kings XI Punjab team.
In another post, Jimmy Neesham also appreciated KL Rahul's batting and asked him to save some runs for April. He further wrote, "Don't forget to save some runs for April aye @klrahul11."
Hours after the post went viral, the International Cricket Council (ICC) took to social media and commented on the same image saying instead of Super Overs, teams can play “rock, paper, scissors” to decide the result of a match whenever it ends in a tie.
The official Twitter handle of ICC re-tweeted the post of Neesham and wrote: “Perhaps we do this instead of super overs”.
Talking about the match, KL Rahul surprised his fans and teammates with his fourth ODI century. Even, Shreyas Iyer also scored a half-century while Manish Pandey and Prithvi Shaw performed well.
Both teams will soon face each other again in the two-match Test series which begins on February 21.
