Watch: Virat Kohli mimics Shikhar Dhawan's batting quirks in a hilarious viral video

Team India opener Shikhar Dhawan is considered one of the popular players amongst the team as he keeps the players around him and the viewers entertained. Dhawan's antics while taking a guard before batting is famous in its unique ways and skipper Virat Kohli decided to imitate him in his own style.

Kohli shared a video on Monday where he was seen mimicking Dhawan's style with a high backlift, rolling his sleeves over his biceps and copying his stance before he left the ball how the left-hander does.

In the video, Kohli said, "I am going to mimic Shikhar Dhawan because I feel he is lost in his space so much that it's very funny and I have seen it many times from the other end."

Kohli will be leading the Indian team in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup starting Monday as the men in blue take on England in their first warm-up game, followed by the second on Wednesday against Australia.

Team India's campaign begins on Sunday, October 24 against arch-rivals Pakistan.

Shikhar Dhawan, who was the fourth highest leading run-scorer in the recently concluded IPL season for Delhi Capitals (DC) wasn't included in the Indian team squad for the tournament and last played for India in July against Sri Lanka where he was the captain of the side.
