The Indian cricket team which is on a tour to England is going to face a very big challenge in coming days as a test match series will start soon.
However, it will be more challenging for the Indian opener Shikhar Dhawan as he has always encountered problems in playing swing bowling, especially in test matches as red ball is used in test matches.
His vulnerability was visible again in the practice match against Essex as he was out for golden duck. He tried to play the ball without moving his foot, the ball got inside edge and wicketkeeper James Foster took the catch of Matt Coles bowling.
As he was sitting in the dressing room after getting out for zero, he took to Twitter and shared a video of training session in which he was middling the ball very well.
Shikhar Dhawan posted the video with caption, “Nothing sounds more sweeter than the whack of a cricket ball.”

He may have worked pretty hard in the nets but it was a fact that he failed in the match. This didn’t go well with Twitteratti and they trolled him mercilessly:

Hopefully, Shikhar will not repeat the same performance again in this tour and play some big innings because a good start is what every team needs to win the match.
