Hashmatullah Shahidi & Co. have been garnering endless affection and appreciation from the Indian cricket fans and experts for playing fearlessly against top teams. Former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan once again put his dancing shoes on to celebrate Afghanistan’s victory on Monday night.

Irfan, who is currently a part of the Star Sports commentary panel, rocked the floor with his moves on the famous Afghan number and shared the video on social media. Former off-spinner Harbhajan Singh could also be seen joining his former teammate in the celebration.

The video has gone viral and is being loved by the fans. Afghanistan spinner Mujeeb Ur Rahman also shared the video and thanked Pathan for his selfless support to the team.

“Once again, @IrfanPathan  dancing in celebration of Afghanistan’s victory! @harbhajan_singh Special thanks, once more, for the support,” Mujeeb posted.

Pathan has been all praise for Afghanistan who are pushing themselves for a semi-final spot. The former Indian all-rounder had expressed his joy when the Afghan Atalans stunned defending champions England in Delhi and then thumped Pakistan, for the first time in ODI history, in Chennai. Pathan danced with Rashid Khan on the ground after Afghanistan outsmarted the Babar Azam-led side.

Lesson from Jonathan Trott

Speaking at the post-match show, Afghanistan captain Shahidi revealed how head coach Jonathan Trott helped him bring out the best as a captain and a player.

“Quite happy and proud of the team. Happy for the way we performed in all 3 departments. Last game gave us lot of confidence and belief that we can chase any kind of target. It was a very professional performance from the bowlers today. All the coaching and managing staff are working hard and giving us confidence,” Shahidi said.

“Especially Jonathan (Trott) he is always positive, before the Pakistan game he told me one word and that changed my mindset a lot. As a captain, you should lead from the front and that’s what I am trying to do, I will try to maintain that in the rest of the tournament,” he added.
