The audience called it 'Kangaroo Daur' (Kangaroo run) and cheered for the 24-year-old. A fan gave a glimpse of the hilarious moment by sharing a short video on Twitter. You can watch it below:

Australia toil hard on Day 3 of 4th Test vs India on a placid pitch
On a flat Ahmedabad track, Australian bowlers toiled hard on a hot Saturday without much success, just like the hosts on the earlier two days. Matthew Kuhnemann dismissed Indian captain Rohit Sharma in the first session to give the visitors an early breakthrough. Shubman Gill and Cheteshwar Pujara then frustrated the visitors by batting together for 42 overs, during which they added 114 runs.
Pujara departed at the stroke of the tea break, but Shubman Gill continued in the same vein and notched up his second Test century. Nathan Lyon finally sent him back to the pavilion in the 79th over.
Speaking on his YouTube channel, Danish Kaneria opined that the Ahmedabad Test was heading towards a draw as there was nothing on offer for the bowlers yet. He said:
"This Test match is heading towards a draw. I don't think we'd get to see a result in this game. Australia could take their chances if they can somehow take a lead by bowling out India early on Day 3. There is nothing on offer for the bowlers on this wicket. There isn't enough turn and the break is quite slow as well."
