Cricket and celebrations go hand in hand. Whenever a batsman scores a century, a bowler picks a wicket or a catch has been taken by any fielder, they always celebrate. However, there are few trademarks of these celebrations, like-the batting maestro Sachin Tendulkar used to remove his helmet and looked up in the sky after scoring a hundred, Imran Tahir celebrates by running etc. India opener Shikhar Dhawan also maintains a typical celebration form and he always does it after taking a catch. His celebration form is known is ‘Thigh-Five’ as he slaps his right thigh with his hand, taking inspiration from Kabaddi.
However, Shikhar Dhawan’s son Zoravar is also a sports lover along with his two sisters and mother, Ayesha. Currently, they are in India to support Shikhar Dhawan in the ongoing season of Indian Premier League 2019. Not only Dhawan’s family, but there are other players’ families travelling with them also.

Recently, Delhi Capitals shared a video where Zoravar Dhawan was seen doing his father Shikhar Dhawan’s steps of celebration, the ‘thigh-five’. Along with him, there was a girl also present, who was identified as the head coach Ricky Ponting’s daughter.
Delhi Capitals tweeted with the caption, “Like father, like son! 🕺🏻 Zoravar Dhawan with the famous thigh-five celebration ft. Our Head Coach’s daughter! 😄”
