Team India played the first T20I against Australia of the 3-match series in former skipper MS Dhoni’s hometown Ranchi and the commentators took the ‘Helicopter Shot’ challenge. Surprisingly, former India opener Virender Sehwag was the only one who became successful in sending the ball flying towards the wide long-on fence.
STAR India took to Twitter to post the video which saw Sehwag, VVS Laxman, Dean Jones and Brett Lee take up the challenge. While the others did a decent job, Laxman played his silken flicks that had cricket fans enjoyed during his playing days. Here is the video:
