Team India made a stunning comeback in the final session of the ongoing fifth and final Test at the Kennington Oval on Friday and picked a total of seven England wickets by the end of the day. It was their fast bowlers which turned the things once again on a flat pitch to keep them on top. Amidst the action on the 22 yards, Shikhar Dhawan entertained the crowd with his bhangra late in the day which has been loved by Hardik Pandya.

He has been dropped for the final Test match by the visitors as they went in with an extra batsman in Hanuma Vihari. His poor performance in Southampton led to them taking this step and it will be interesting to see if the four-bowler strategy works for Team India. So far they have done well and has kept the opposition on their toes.

Dhawan entertains the crowd

Shikhar Dhawan, in the final session, was fielding in the deep when the crowd including the Bharat Army, who are the biggest supporters of the team when they travel overseas, got behind him and requested him to showcase a few of his moves. The flamboyant cricketer didn’t shy away and shook his leg only to leave everyone in splits. Even the Indian fans in the stands also started dancing with him which left the commentators, Harbhajan Singh and David Lloyd, also trying their hands at the same.

Bharat Army loved this gesture from Dhawan and posted the video on their Twitter handle. The environment is always electric and no wonder that the cricketers have fun when they are not playing. Even Pandya was thrilled after watching the video and he couldn’t control but laugh.

Meanwhile, Dhawan will have to showcase his batting skills on the second day of the Test match and the Indian fans would be hoping that he scores big and floor the hosts completely.
