To negate the Jamieson threat, Jaffer posted a photo and said there should be a “height limit” outside the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai- the venue for the ongoing second and final Test match between India and New Zealand.
“One way to negate the Jamieson threat could be to put this height limit outside Wankhede,” Jaffer captioned his post.
