The video also features Shikhar Dhawan talking about the dish.

Dhawan said, "Here, a dish known as Mock Duck is prepared. That's my favorite, but how is it prepared? Let's see."

Chef Rakesh Kamble at Grant Hyatt in Mumbai gave a tour of the kitchen where the Mock Duck is prepared. He revealed that Sanju Samson and Shikhar Dhawan are crazy about the dish. He also disclosed that the Pandya brothers order the dish once or twice every three four days.

The Indian team is currently in Mumbai and will board the flight to Sri Lanka soon. The Men in Blue will play three ODIs and as many T20Is between July 13 to July 25. The team will be led by Shikhar Dhawan while Bhuvneshwar Kumar will be his deputy.

Meanwhile, the main Indian team is in England where they will take on the Three Lions in a five-match Test series. Recently, they suffered a disappointing eight-wicket loss in the World Test Championship final against New Zealand.
