India’s middle order batsman Chiteshwar Pujara can be an extraordinary batsman but in no way he is good at shaking a leg. 

The Indian team became on Monday the first Asian side ever to win a Test series in Australia 2-1 and that was time for celebration indeed. Wicketkeeper batsman Rishabh Pant led his India teammates to an impromptu dance step to celebrate with the Indian fans at Sydney.

Dubbed by Virat Kohli as the 'Pujara dance', the Indian captain revealed that Pant came up with it as a joke on the way India’s number three walks.

“That was the Pujara dance because when he walks he doesn’t move his hands, so it’s more of an extension of his walk. Rishabh came up with it and we just joined in,” said Kohli, while talking to media. “It just felt good, it was very easy but Pujara couldn’t even do that! You can see how simple he is,” Kohli added.

The fourth Test of the otherwise exhilarating series was drawn, owing to consistent delays caused by rain.
