SportsTak

India continued their fine run in limited-overs cricket, securing another series win, this time white-washing Zimbabwe in a three-match ODI series in Harare on Tuesday, August 22. The Men in Blue were rattled by a late surge from Sikandar Raza, who hit a century while chasing 290 runs for the win, but eventually scraped through after Raza's wicket fell.

 

After the game, the Indian team were highly jubilant, and rightly so. The official social media handle of veteran Indian opener Shikhar Dhawan shared a video of their celebrations, with the team doing a very viral trend on the song 'Kala Chashma' from the movie ‘Baar Baar Dekho’.

The trend was started by a Norwegian dance group named 'Quick Style,' dancing to the tunes of the famous hindi track. The video has been shared multiple times and can see Ishan Kishan and series hero Shubman Gill basking in their recently found glory.

 

Indian players and their dance moves!
Team India's dance celebration video did very well as it was the first time that the fans witnessed anything like this. In the caption shared by Shikhar Dhawan, he wrote, 'this is how we celebrate victory.'

In the video, in addition to Kishan and Gill, who were seen doing different unique steps, the likes of Avesh Khan, Shardul Thakur, Deepak Chahar, Rituraj Gaikwad and Axar Patel were also seen dancing away in joy.
