Xtra Time Web Desk: Guess who will be the most popular cricketer in Assam after Riyan Parag. Well it has to be Rajasthan Royal’s pacer Jofra Archer after Wednesday night. The England cricketer seemed to have started liking the Bihu Dance after Rihan Parag did it on winning the game against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Parag was seen doing the Assamese folk dance immediately after hitting Khaleel Ahmed for a six over covers to see his team home.
Archer seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed the Bihu Dance as he was seen doing the dance steps before the Delhi Capitals game. He did get another opportunity to celebrate with the dance steps when he went through the defence of Prithvi Shaw in his first ball of the match.
Shaw’s back foot remained rooted due to which he failed to come in line with the delivery. Jofra Archer’s delivery had moved a bit but it was enough to pass throw the big gap between the pad and the bat due to the lack of feet movement from the right-handed batsman.
And soon after the dismissal, a delighted Archer was seen doing the Bihu dance with Parag.
