Umar Akmal celebrates catches with the Paul Pogba ‘dab’, Twitter goes crazy
September 25, 2016
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, sending Twitter into a meltdown.
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.
Looks like Umar Akmal had resolved to get back at him. When the brash player took three catches in the following innings, he celebrated each by performing the dab dance with a smug look on his face.
The Twitterverse, naturally, went into a frenzy as fans took to the platform to take jibes at the batsman.
