Usman Khawaja called 'disrespectful' after celebrating his Test half-century with a dab

The dab has reached Test cricket and UNFORTUNATELY die-hard traditionalists are not too happy about it.
Australia batsman, Usman Khawaja, celebrated his eight 50 in Test cricket by delivering the now iconic 'dab' dance move. The dab has since swept through American and British sport after it was created during a music video for an Atlanta hip-hop artist. 

The left-hander admitted he had decided to execute the move after discussions with team mates in the lead up to Australia's Test match with Pakistan at the SCG. "We've been joking about it (the dab) all week," Khawaja said after the match.
"Renners [Matt Renshaw] and a few of the other lads have been talking about it so when I got to fifty I thought 'just dab'." However the light-hearted celebration received a mixed reaction on social media, with many cricket fans calling the dance move 'disrespectful' to Australia's touring opponents.
