Set to bat first after South Africa won the toss, Ruturaj Gaikwad and his fellow opener Ishan Kishan decided to spend quite some time on the dugout when rain delayed the start of the game. During the rain break, a groundsman approached Gaikwad and sat beside him.
The groundsman then tried to click a selfie with Gaikwad who pushed him after and denied the selfie. Gaikwad was then seen turning his head away to the other side. Though the groundsman asked for the selfie again, Gaikwad apparently refused and asked him to move away.
