Ind vs Aus 2017: Dale Steyn shares photograph with Ishant Shamra in traditional Indian attire

New Delhi: South African speedster Dale Steyn recently took on social media to congratulate his friend, Ishant Sharma, soon after the Indian sent back Matt Renshaw for an LBW on Day 5 of the third Test between India and Australia at Ranchi.

It was the 29th over of Australia's second innings. Following a few heated up gestures, Ishant swung a length ball into the batsman, which hit him right in front of the wickets and the umpire had no hesitation in raising his finger. The Ranchi crowd heard a loud roar as the pacer exhaled his frustration on sending back the young left-hander.

Following the wicket, the South African legend posted an old picture of him along with Ishant in traditional Indian attire on Twitter, congratulating the 28-year-old tall pacer for that wicket.
