No matter where he is, when the opportunity to do a Bhangra arrives, Harbhajan Singh rarely lets it go. Well, the veteran Indian spinner, currently plying his trade as commentator in the ongoing England vs India series, made his fellow commentator David Lloyd do the Bhangra in the commentary box on day one of the fifth Test.
Not surprisingly, David Lloyd did not pull off a good bhangra but it was enough to make Harbhajan Singh laugh out loud while he was humming the tunes.
Here is a clip showing Lloyd doing the dance in the commentary box:

Harbhajan Singh also took to Twitter to post the video while praising David Lloyd and Rob Key:
When work becomes fun!???Taught @BumbleCricket a little bit of bhangra, as he showed off some bhangra skills in his own style! It was a great attempt, to say the least! Always a pleasure working with these gentlemen. Lot to learn from them! @SkyCricket pic.twitter.com/vFLpuzJ0vN

Coming to the game, India took the honours on day one. After deciding to bat first, the hosts were well placed at 133 for 1. Alastair Cook, playing his last international game, and Keaton Jennings gave their side a decent start with a 60-run stand. Cook and Moeen then shared 73 runs for the second wicket to bat England to a position of strength.
However, India made a fine comeback to reduce England to 198 for 7 at stumps. The game turned on its head when Jasprit Bumrah dismissed Cook and Joe Root inside an over. Ishant Sharma then dismissed Jonny Bairstow for a duck to leave England reeling at 134 for 4.
A 37-run stand between Moeen Ali and Ben Stokes stopped the rot for a while. But England once again lost three wickets inside 10 runs to end the day on a poor note.
The result of the game, meanwhile, will have no impact on the game as England have already sealed the series. The hosts lead the five-match series 3-1.
