Caribbean pacer Kesrick Williams grabbed a lot of limelight recently, courtesy his on-field banter with Virat Kohli. The Vincentian delivered some decent spells in T20Is against the Men in Blue and his chequebook celebration also got a lot of attention. Many were impressed by the pacerโs ability to bowl in the crunch situation of the game but not Kevin Pietersen. The former England captain wasnโt dazzled by the 29-year oldโs performance and said that the latter has nothing apart from his celebration.ย Virat Kohli Mocks Kesrick Williams' Celebration in His Own Unique Style During India vs West Indies 1st T20I 2019 (Watch Video).
It all started when Indiaโs controversial commentator Sanjay Manjrekar made a tweet, asking the IPL franchises to go for the pacer in the upcoming auction. A fan wrote in the comment section that โRCB should pouch him given the chemistry he shares with Virat Kohli I can see the captain and the bowler comparing notes after a dismissal! Brilliant.โ However, Pietersen didnโt agree with the fanโs thought and wrote that โCompletely disagree. Heโs not good enough! He has nothing special apart from his celebrationโ and Williams welcomed his thought with an emoji.
Manjrekar' Tweet!!
Go for Kesrick Williams guys. Perfect bowler for IPL conditions. #IPLAuction

In the recently concluded India vs West Indies T20I series, Virat and Williams were involved in an individual battle which was dominated by the former. Nevertheless, Williams did manage to get better of the batting juggernaut on one occasion. The IPL auctions will go underway on December 19 in Kolkata. Now, it will be interesting to see, whether the team owners will acknowledge Manjrekarโs suggestion or agree to Pietersenโs thought.
