Shikhar Dhawan's son was one of the star attractions in the stadium when he turned up for the Indian Premier League match between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Mumbai Indians, in Hyderabad, on Monday.

The four-month-old seemed to enjoy being a part of the packed gathering at the Rajiv Gandhi Internation Stadium in Uppal, which was bursting with music and loud cheers from the local spectators.
