[Watch] Fabian Allen shows off his dance moves after dismissing Andre Fletcher in LPL 2024

West Indian cricketer Fabian Allen showed off his dance moves after dismissing his countryman Andre Fletcher in a Lanka Premier League (LPL) match on Saturday, July 20. The Jaffna Kings scored 187 runs after being asked to bat first in Qualifier 2 against the Kandy Falcons at R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.

In response, Kandy's opener, Andre Fletcher, was enjoying his time on the crease until his inning was cut short by left-arm spinner Fabian Allen. The right-handed batter tried to play the full ball from the backfoot but missed it completely as it went on to hit the stumps from the gap between the bat and pad.

Fabian was thrilled after taking the wicket as he ran towards the cover area and then showed off his dance moves. Fletcher scored 38 runs off 21 balls, hitting three fours and four maximums. The right-handed batter's wicket left the Kandy Falcons at 62/2 after 6.3 overs.

Here’s the video of the celebration:

In the end, the Kings held their nerves to secure a thrilling victory by one run. Fabian Allen (4/24) and Vijayakanth Vijaysakanth (3/30) were the pick of the bowlers for them.

With a victory in this game, the Kings will face the Galle Marvels in the final on Sunday, July 21.
