It is natural to get starstruck when you meet your favourite celebrity. The sudden switch from seeing them countless times on the screen or social media to watching them up close often makes your mind go blank. You wonder whether you should say hi, ask for a selfie or compliment them for their work, which usually results in you standing awkwardly, unable to battle with the whirlwind of excitement.

Along similar lines, an Uber driver received a startling surprise after finding out that he was meant to pick up some of the promising personalities of the cricket world. In a video now circulating widely on Instagram, the driver was seen waiting for the passengers to hop onto the vehicle in Australia. Little did he know that the commuters were none other than cricket sensations Dhruv Jurel, Prasidh Krishna and Yashashwi Jaiswal. The Indian cricket team is currently in Australia for the 2nd ODI Test series.

Uber Driver In Awe After Picking Up Indian Cricketers

The clip captured the three cricketers getting into the car one by one as the Uber driver looked at them with astonishment. He appeared too stunned to speak and simply started driving the car without even starting a conversation. By the time they arrived at the destination, the driver seemed to have a brief chat with the trio before they stepped out of the vehicle. “Indian Cricket Team Players” read the side note.

Internet Shares Two Cents On The Matter

The internet had a good laugh coming across the video.

“He was too stunned to speak or express,” noted a user. “He did not even bother,” joked another. One person called the unreal moment, the “dream of every Uber driver.” An individual called the driver, “Introvert ultra pro max.” “Prime example of thinking too much. Once in a lifetime opportunity gone. Should have said hi,” read a comment.

Sharing their own experience of meeting Dhruv Jurel, Prasidh Krishna and Yashashwi Jaiswal, one fan revealed, “I met them in London during the Lords and Oval test. They are very humble and sweet, especially Jaiswal.” Someone also noted, “Good they are wearing seat belts.”
