The camaraderie and the friendship of the cricketers was on full display as they tried to guess what the other player is trying to say. 

In the game, while Dhawan had to guess the name of India's Sri Lanka bound players; Shaw was asked to guess the name of the food items that his skipper was mouthing. 

At the end of the video, Dhawan and Shaw nominated India's middle-order batsman Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav to play the game next. 

The post was a big hit on social media as several cricket enthusiasts praised the Indian board for sharing the videos of different activities of the players. 

"BCCI social media is doing a great job now-a-days. Exciting activities," said a user.

A user requested to let Devdutt Padikkal open the innings in India's Sri Lanka tour. He even went on to compare Padikkal with Sourav Ganguly. 

"Please take Padikkal for opening. He will surely continue his form and prove himself. India got the best left-handed batsman after Ganguly," the comment read.
