Indian cricketers Ravindra Jadeja and Yuzvendra Chahal, along with former India players Irfan Pathan and Suresh Raina, took to social media on Sunday to extend Diwali greetings to fans, wishing them happiness and prosperity on the festival of lights.
Jadeja extended Diwali greetings in a unique way, sharing a post featuring himself in a pink kurta, symbolising his association with Rajasthan Royals (RR), while also uploading an Instagram story in a yellow kurta, reflecting his long-standing association with Chennai Super Kings (CSK). Notably, ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 season, Ravindra Jadeja and England all-rounder Sam Curran moved from CSK to RR, while wicketkeeper-batter Sanju Samson joined CSK for Rs 18 crore. Jadeja's fee was revised to Rs 14 crore, down from Rs 18 crore, at which he was retained by CSK ahead of the previous season. Jadeja wrote, Happy diwali to everyone in his Instagram post. https://www.instagram.com/p/DfeRQYWRWML/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&mdxt=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==&srtk=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Indian spinner Yuzvendra Chahal also took to social media to wish fans on the occasion of Diwali. https://x.com/yuzi_chahal/status/2119361166782955819?a=AJiL8jXQAZUyJbnPKBA&s=20 Former India cricketer Suresh Raina extended his greetings, writing, Happy Diwali.
