IND vs SA: Shikhar Dhawan and Co. shake leg on Punjabi song to celebrate ODI series win

Shikhar Dhawan, the captain of India, enjoyed a fun time with his teammates following Tuesday's 2-1 ODI series victory over South Africa. In the third and final ODI, played in Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium, the Indian team thrashed the Proteas by 7 wickets to win the series.

Shikhar Dhawan, India's stand-in captain for the campaign, could not contain his joy and was seen breaking into his signature thigh celebration after getting the trophy. After the conclusion of the series, Dhawan shared a video of him and his teammates celebrating the win with a dance step. 

In India’s last ODI win against Zimbabwe under Dhawan’s captaincy, he danced to the song ‘Kala Chashma’ along with his teammates, and the video garnered a lot of attention. So much so that other teams, like Hong Kong and Barbados Royals Women, also started celebrating in a similar manner after winning matches.

Now with another series win under their name, the Dhawan & Co. grooved to the famous Bollywood song Bolo Tara Rara, and the skipper was seen guiding the group with the steps as well. Dhawan shared a video of him and the team and captioned it: "Jeet ke bolo Tara ra ra."

Speaking of the series, India lost the first game by a short margin of nine runs as the visitors took an early lead. The second game was a crucial one for India, and Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan rose to the occasion with the bat, as the former notched up 93(84) and the latter amassed an unbeaten 113*(111) to take India to a win. Kuldeep Yadav’s heroics with the ball helped India restrict South Africa to just 99 runs in the third game, making it easier for the Indian batters to chase.
