Shikhar Dhawan played a crucial knock of 40 runs as India beat South Africa by seven wickets in the second T20I in Mohali. On Thursday, the Indian players had boarded a flight to Bengaluru where the third and final Twenty20 International (T20I) will be played. While onboarding the flight, Shikhar Dhawan posted a video on Instagram where he asked his opening partner Rohit Sharma, who was arranging toys, what he has bought for his daughter.

“Meet the loving and caring fathers from our team @rohitsharma45 & @royalnavghan,” Dhawan captioned his videowhile posting. Replying to Dhawan’s question, Rohit Sharma said he picked whatever he liked. “They are coming to Bengaluru, so I thought I will give it to her, she will like it,” Rohit said while referring to his daughter Samaira. He also said that his daughter “loves toys”.

After that, Rohit asked Dhawan to shift his camera to another father, Ravindra Jadeja who was sitting just behind them. Then both Dhawan and Rohit asked him if he has ever given any gift to his daughter and Jadeja failed to name a single toy. On the other hand, Rohit’s wife Ritika Sajdeh was completely moved by Dhawan’s video and she also replied to the video.

Shikhar Dhawan performed with the bat in Mohali whereas Rohit failed to provide a solid start and fell for 12 runs. All-rounder Ravindra Jadeja picked up one wicket in his four-over spell and he was the second-most expensive bowler on the day after Navdeep Saini for India.

India, however, managed to win the game and took an unassailable 1-0 lead in the three-match series, after the first match was washed out in Dharamshala due to rain. The trio of “loving and caring fathers” will next play on Sunday for the third T20I and hopefully, they will try to seal the series against South Africa with another winning performance.
