Indian leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal officially took the viral "6-7" celebration global during Northamptonshire’s County Championship clash against Lancashire at Old Trafford.

By cleaning up Lancashire batter Joe Moores with a brilliant delivery from around the wicket, Chahal chose to mark the milestone by recreating the popular Gen-Z seesaw hand gesture.

The celebration was first made famous by 20-year-old Delhi leg-spinner Medhavi Bidhuri during the opening match of the Women's Delhi Premier League.

Bidhuri produced the celebration while playing for the Central Delhi Queens after dismissing Nishika Singh from the South Delhi Superstarz. The "6-7" trend also matched Bidhuri’s jersey number (67), which she originally sported on her younger sister's recommendation.

Known for his active presence in internet meme culture, Chahal shared a split-screen video of the two celebrations on Instagram with the caption, “Outspinning the Algorithm”.
