Mene-Ejegi, who has represented both Nigeria and Serbia on the international level, took four Isle of Man wickets in that match and pulled out his somersault celebration for every single one. It received many likes and reactions on the platform, earning plaudits for his pinpoint yorkers but also the athleticism involved in that manoeuvre.
Serbia and the Isle of Man, a small island in the Irish Sea, were competing in the ICC Men's T20 Sub-regional European qualifier tournament, which involves countries where cricket is a small but growing sport. In the five-team group 2, Isle of Man finished top with four wins out of four, but lost in the final to Italy, table toppers in group 1, in a final played in the town of Kerava, Finland. Serbia won 2 and lost 2, and won the 8th place playoff with geographical neighbours Croatia.
