The viral video shows the lookalikes of Virat Kohli and Shikhar Dhawan riding scooters around the streets

There’s no lack of lookalikes in Indian cricket. From MS Dhoni to Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli, these doubles do their best to excite ardent supporters by flawlessly imitating their idols. What seemed to be Kohli and Shikhar Dhawan zooming about on a scooter in a scenario that recently came right out of a comedy film turned out to be their funny doppelgängers, bringing pleasure to the streets.

A doppelganger for Virat Kohli, complete with the cricketer’s signature beard, drives the scooter with confidence in the now-viral video, while his Dhawan counterpart taunts him playfully from the pillion seat. The bystanders burst with laughter when they realize that these aren’t the genuine deal—rather, they are their uncanny duplicates—after being originally attracted in by the traffic.

The video gained popularity quickly and made people chuckle on social media. “He was Kohli.However, he grinned,” one user said, pointing out the minute variations in the replica’s smile. “Bhai pehli nzr mei lga real kohli kisi ko lift de rha,” said another. “Retirement ke baad dono ese hi delhi me ghoomenge,” the third person laughed.

Meanwhile, a ton of these YouTube videos of identical twins playing cricket have surfaced recently. A few months before, another video that showed a similar situation made its way to the internet. The video showed cricket legends Tendulkar, Dhoni, and Kohli supposedly handing over trophies, signifying the legacy transfer.

But they were all just the replicas of the real cricketing greats, coming together to provide a really entertaining show. Everybody took turns passing the cricket relic, with the online community being thoroughly entertained by Tendulkar’s mirror image wearing Indian colours, Dhawan’s transformation into Dhoni in CSK attire, Kohli’s replica in the Indian jersey, and a Sunil Narine lookalike wearing a KKR jersey.
