Pakistan batsman Umar Akmal celebrated each of his three catches during the second T20I against West Indies in UAE on Saturday with the ‘dab’ dance.
During last night’s match West Indies captain Carlos Brathwaite had celebrated Babar Azam’s wicket with the dab dance, imitating Manchester United footballer Paul Pogba’s signature move.
Umar Akmal took three catches in the following innings and celebrated each by performing the dab dance and showed everyone that he is also a fan of following popular trends on social media.
Twitter users went into a frenzy as fans took to the platform to take hits at the batsman.
