"Last Benchers": Delhi Capitals Team Photo Spoiled By The Players
Delhi Capitals had a notorious bunch in their midst that photo-bombed their team group picture.
Highlights
-
Delhi Capitals players turned "last benchers" during a team photo shoot

Impromptu dance moves by Shreyas Iyer, Shikhar Dhawan left DC in splits

IPL 2020 begins in the UAE from September 19
The mischief mongers, led by skipper Shreyas Iyer, at Delhi Capitals (DC) had a field day during a team grouping as Iyer, Shikhar Dhawan, Kagiso Rabada and Ravichandran Ashwin did their own sweet things to photo bomb a team picture and everyone was better off for the laughter. Ashwin and Rabada started off by playing around with assistant coach Mohammad Kaif before Iyer and Dhawan went overboard with impromptu dance moves and gestures that threw Ashwin off guard. The flummoxed off-spinner could only afford a smile in the end as he saw two of his teammates in their elements. Delhi Capitals had an apt caption for the caricature: “Last benchers as soon as the teacher turns toward the blackboard.”
