Team India cricketer Shikhar Dhawan on Friday slammed the Emirates Airlines for not allowing his wife and kids to catch the connecting flight from Dubai to South Africa.

Dhawan and his India cricket team members arrived in South Africa on late Thursday night. According to Shikhar Dhawan, Emirates Airlines didn't notify about producing birth certificates or identification proofs of the player's wife Aesha Mukherjee and their two kids.

"Absolutely unprofessional from @emirates. Was on my way 2 SA with my fam & was told tht my wife and kids can't board the flight from Dubai to SA. Was asked to produce birth certificates & other documents fr my kids at the airport which we obviously didn't have at that moment," Dhawan said on Twitter.

"They are now at Dubai airport waiting for the documents to arrive. Why didn't @emirates notify about such a situation when we were boarding the plane from Mumbai? One of the emirates' employee was being rude for no reason at all."

The Indian cricket team is there to play three Tests, six One-Day Internatonals (ODIs) and three Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is).
