The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2018 is just around the corner and before you know it, the familiar IPL trumpet jingle will reverberate across the country. Goes without saying that there are practice matches galore for the eight teams to warm up. Apart from sweating it out on the nets, the players are busy with the ad shoots for the sponsors.
And you know what that means right?
Behind the scenes like these launches a thousand memes. And before you know it, the video is viral.
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) skipper Virat Kohli was recently spotted along with teammates Yuzvendra Chahal and Brendon McCullum dancing while shooting a TV commercial. While Kohli did all his steps perfectly in-sync with the beats, Chahal found it difficult to match up with his captain. And it’s clearly visible that McCullum needs to do a lot of homework.

And then, of course, come the kings of Punjab. We don’t expect anything but the niftiest bhangra moves from them. Recently, the Universe Boss, Chris Gayle entered the lion’s den and soon he landed on the sets along with Yuvraj Singh and skipper Ravichandran Ashwin. Gayle is already excited about his upcoming stint with the Kings XI Punjab and has posted his bhangra videos on social media platforms.
