Shikhar Dhawan, who landed in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) with his Delhi Capitals teammates last week, took to Instagram to share a picture of himself, enjoying sunshine in Dubai. "Sunny Dubai bringing out the smiles," Dhawan captioned the picture. Soon after the opening batsman posted the picture, Indian team's spin twins Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav took a cheeky dig at Dhawan. While Kuldeep mocked the left-handed batsman about his hair, Chahal teasingly said that since Ayesha (Dhawan's wife) was in Australia, there was less stress for Dhawan so he had grown some hair.
"@kuldeep_18 bhabhi Australia mein hai bro so no pitai Abhi.. toh baal aagaye samjh rahe ho na samjh rahe ho na @shikhardofficial," Chahal said.

"Baba hum toh puraane chawal ho gaye. Tu abhi naya hi engaged hua hai, tu sambhal ke chal kahin aagey waale badey daant aur bahaar nah aa jayein, samjh gya nah," Dhawan wrote.
Shikhar Dhawan gave an epic reply to Yuzvendra Chahal.

RCB finished last season but Chahal managed to pick up 18 wickets in the tournament and kept his economy rate under eight.
