Punjab Kings (PBKS) batting coach Wasim Jaffer is excited for the clash between Delhi Capitals (DC) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) tonight (April 15). The reason for his eagerness is the face-off between RR's Jos Buttler and DC's R Ashwin.
When Ashwin was PBKS (then Kings XI Punjab) captain in IPL 2019, he had mankaded Buttler. Jaffer took to Twitter to post a hilarious reference to the incident and used the picture of a scene from the movie Lagaan.

"Watch out for these two tonight. #RRvsDC #IPL2021," he wrote. RR's official Twitter account reacted to his tweet and replied him with another Lagaan meme.
The meme of RR read, "Main yeh khel pehle khel chuka hoon (I have played this game earlier)". They hinted that Buttler will be aware this time unlike the incident in IPL 2019.
Jaffer responded to Royals to not wander out, and stay in to stay safe, also delivering a message in these COVID-19 times. He wrote, "Don't wander out. Stay in, stay safe."
Rajasthan Royals are currently at number 6 in the points table with the loss in their first match. They lost the match against Punjab by 4 runs in a last-ball finish. Skipper Sanju Samson had scored a hundred but unfortunately couldn't finish the match for his side.
