Team India celebrated in style after beating Sri Lanka in the third T20I at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Dhoni was especially in a festive mood and his special Santa look had fans on Twitter in meltdown. The former India captain was seen sporting a very different Santa cap from his teammates and his hilarious expressions won the fans over.
