The ongoing Nidahas trophy has been in news not only for the cricket being played on the ground but also for some of the antics that the players from Bangladesh cricket team and Sri Lanka have indulged during their matches. Nothing has grabbed the attention of the crowds and viewers like the Nagin dance which has gone viral more than once. And now the legendary Indian batsman Sunil Gavaskar has joined the "Nagin" gang as one might say.
While commentating for the final match of the Nidahas trophy being fought between India and Bangladesh, Sunil Gavaskar replicated the famous pose for his fellow commentator Brett Lee. The original little master was bang on and we must say that his dance timing, just like his batting, was amazing too.

Sunil Gavaskar surprised one and all by imitating the cobra pose. In fact, it could be seen several times that the crowds have also been posing in cobra "mode" for the cameras. Even the legendary Indian batsman Sunil Gavaskar showed a move or two in the commentary box. Considering that he is from Mumbai, surely he must have learnt the step in a wedding dance or many amazing celebrations of Mumbai. He put it to good effect today in the commentary box, don't miss Brett Lee's reaction:

Both Brett Lee and Amir Sohail looked amused by Gavaskar's sudden chutzpah. Having lived in Mumbai, the legendary Indian batting maestro surely knows his step or two. In fact, he even said that the whole Nagin or cobra dance controversy had added spice to the Tri-series and complimented Mushfiqur Rahim for his pose and starting it all in the tournament.
