Murali Vijay Celebrating His Century In Style Doing The ‘Double Dab’ With Skipper Virat Kohli
It has been one of the biggest problems for the Indian team to select the openers from many options. With the Indian batsmen hardly having to hit top gear to make cheerful in the winter sunlight during the 3rd Test in Delhi against Sri Lanka, the management finally went with Shikhar Dhawan and Murali Vijay.
Murali Vijay made a comeback to the playing line-up in the 2nd Test after Dhawan was released from the team due to personal reasons. However, Vijay scored a century on a comeback in Nagpur. He went to repeat the same feat in Delhi and completed his 11th Test century without any trouble whilst in the company of the run-machine and skipper Virat Kohli.
Whereas, Right-handed opener Lokesh Rahul made way for the left-handed Shikhar Dhawan as India, 1-0 up in the series, shuffled the top of their batting order for the third match in a row. Dhawan could not make the most of the opportunity, though, his attempted sweep shot off Dilruwan Perera finding Suranga Lakmal at the deep square leg.
Next man in Cheteshwar Pujara played with trademark sagacity and hit four boundaries before walking into a Sri Lankan trap. Kohli, however, was simply unstoppable as the right-hander scored at nearly a run a ball, treating the weekend crowd to some exciting shot-making.
While skipper Virat Kohli closed in on a third of the series. But unlike Kohli’s generally more muted celebrations, Vijay’s was more animated wherein he broke into an impromptu jig much to the delight of the fans. That wasn’t all as captain Kohli, always up for a light moment, joined in the celebrations too and both added to the entertainment quotient by performing the ‘dab’.

It was hilarious, isn’t it?
India who lead the three-match Test series 1-0, will look to wrap up the final match as fast as possible and complete the record-equaling ninth series without too much ado. After this series, the Kohli-led India will travel to South Africa for what is expected to be a testing series.
