Delhi Capitals opening batsman Shikhar Dhawan got back the Orange Cap after scoring 45 in his team's win over Mumbai Indians on Tuesday. Delhi Capitals defeated five-time IPL champions Mumbai Indians by six wickets at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. After the match, Mumbai Indians shared a picture of captain Rohit Sharma with Delhi Capitals' Shikhar Dhawan and Rishabh Pant that quickly created a buzz on social media. The picture, shared on the Twitter and Instagram pages of Mumbai Indians, shows Rohit Sharma speaking to Pant and Dhawan, with one finger raised as if to emphasise a point.
Shikhar Dhawan was photographed wearing the Orange Cap, which is presented to the leading run scorer. Dhawan is currently the Orange Cap holder after registering 231 runs in four matches at an average of 57.75 with his best score being 92 against Punjab Kings.

The picture was shared without a caption, so social media users came up with their own. While some imagined what the MI skipper could have been saying when the photo was taken, others focused on the Orange Cap.
Here is a look at some of the funniest reactions that the pic has garnered.

The pic was also shared by Delhi Capitals along with three others on Twitter. "A tale of two cities, friendships and so much more, everytime we play," they wrote. Take a look:
