Rohit Sharma, India's limited-overs vice-captain, shared an unseen side of his batting partner Shikhar Dhawan on a flight. Just like the opening spots, the two also like to sit together on the plane.
Sharma recorded Dhawan's weird behavior on his mobile. It felt like the southpaw is talking to himself. But Rohit explained neither he is talking to him, nor he has an imaginary friend. Later Dhawan himself explained that he was practicing couplets. "No no, he isn't talking to me! And he's too old to have an imaginary friend. Why so loco jattji @shikhardofficial," Rohit Sharma captioned the video on Instagram on Friday.
"I was practicing shayeri and janab ney video le liya. Kya dil se yaad kar rha tha wah Maza aa gya. Kaash itne dil se padhaayi bhi kari hoti. (He recorded when I was reciting poetry. I was having a fun time. I wish I could have studied too with such passion)," reads Dhawan's comment.

Both the cricketers are currently part of India's squad for three-match T20I series against South Africa. They were traveling to Bangaluru for the third and final T20I. India has taken a lead of 1-0 in the series after winning the second T20I at Mohali. The first match was washed out because of rain in Dharmasala.
