In the game of cricket, every batter and bowler has their own way of celebrating a wicket or fifty or hundred, but sometimes players go to another level to leave fans just amazed.

One such instance was seen during the ICC Men's T20 World Cup Sub Regional Europe Qualifier Group A contest.

On Friday (July 22), the International Cricket Council (ICC) shared a video on its official Instagram handle, where a Serbian cricketer can be seen celebrating his wickets in a bizarre manner that most fans have probably never seen.

The Serbian bowler named Ayo Mene-Ejegi stunned many with his unique celebration on the field.

Actually, Ayo Mene-Ejegi celebrated his every wicket by making a front-flip before lying straight on the ground with his hands wide open, and it even left the ICC surprised, along with millions of fans.

The ICC took the shot from an ICC Men's T20 World Cup Sub Regional Europe Qualifier Group A match between Serbia and Isle of Man played on July 13.

In this match, the bowler took four wickets to help Serbia restrict the Isle of Man to a total of 165/7 in 20 overs. However, Serbia still lost the match by 68 runs after they were restricted to a total of 97/7 by the Isle of Man side.

But Ayo Mene-Ejegi’s unique way of celebrating wicket went viral on social media, and it has so far garnered over 1.5 million views on Instagram Reels.
