Sports persons often keep influencing the common people by their hair styles, body language and sometimes tattoos. This trend is so common and keeps circulating around the ring. These days, though it began with the gait of Azharuddin and varying hairstyles of MS Dhoni, now it is best said as skipper Virat Kohli’s tattoos.
Indian cricket team itself is a fashion phenomenon. With Shikhar Dhawan’s stud mustache and Jadeja’s altering beard fit, no Indian player is less in such aspects. For an instance let us go back to a month, we all know the way #BreakTheBeard has trended on Twitter.
With Hardik Pandya starting the chain, Rohit Sharma rowed it, incepted from all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja. This time, the case is different. All rounder Hardik Pandya, who is known for his flamboyance and spirited attitude was trending during the 4th ODI between India and Sri Lanka.
He was going viral because of his new hairstyle. Pandya sported a hairstyle similar to that of West Indies all-rounder Andre Russell. Hardik is popularly known as Kungfu Panda and can also be easily related to the Windies style of living. His hairstyle received mixed reaction after Twitterati poked fun at him.
In those tweets, many of the fans suggested him to go for a haircut and avoid such blunders. Even Indian batsman KL Rahul has also become one among the people who want Pandya to change his current look. Thus, Rahul took a dig at Pandya’s look and posted an Instagram story. In the story- Rahul can be seen sitting alongside Pandya, and the picture had a text to it.
Rahul asked the fans to give their honest reviews about Pandya’s new look and wanted the all-rounder to change his mind. This was not the first time when the Karnataka-born Rahul made fun of Hardik. Last year Rahul posted a picture of a model on the ramp sporting a weird hairdo and tagged Pandya asking the fans to give their views if it would suit the all-rounder.
However, Pandya scored 19 runs off 18 balls, including a six and a four; and picked up 2 wickets, giving away 50 runs from his 8 overs. India clinched their fourth successive win in the ODI series. The visitors had earlier sealed the Test series 3-0 and handed a whitewash to the Sri Lankan team.
Both the teams play the fifth and the last ODI on September 3 (Sunday).
