David Warner breaks into an impromptu jig during Pakistan vs Australia Test match. (Twitter/Screengrab) Australia’s David Warner is known for his videos on Instagram where he is seen doing a lot of activities like dancing to Indian movie songs or following the latest social media trends. On Tuesday, when the camera panned in on him during first Pakistan vs Australia Test, he was found breaking into an impromptu jig while fielding.
He brought out a series of dance moves including the Bhangra, while on the field and was at his quirky best as the match proceeded towards a draw.
In the match, opening batter Imam-ul-Haq hit a century in each innings for Pakistan as Australia could bag only four wickets on a docile pitch in the drawn first test on Tuesday.
