Currently, the Indian cricket team is in Cape Town to play matches against South Africa. Not only cricketers, but even their families i.e. wife and kids have joined them. We even saw pics of Anushka accompanying Virat.
The team had to first travel from Mumbai to Dubai and after that, they had to travel to South Africa. Everyone had a good travel experience but Shikhar Dhawan had the worst one.

Well, his wife and children are stranded at the Dubai airport as they didn’t have birth certificate of his son Zoravar. Yes, since they failed to produce the certificates, the authorities of Emirates didn’t allow them to board the flight to South Africa.
The family had no clue what to do as they weren’t informed about this earlier. Now, they are waiting for all these documents to arrive. Meanwhile, Shikhar Dhawan has reached the destination but he’s furious about the entire fiasco.
He took to Twitter and lashed out at the authorities;
1/2.Absolutely unprofessional from @emirates. Was on my way 2 SA with my fam & was told tht my wife and kids can't board the flight from Dubai to SA. Was asked to produce birth certificates & other documents fr my kids at the airport which we obviously didn't have at that moment.

2/2.They are now at Dubai airport waiting for the documents to arrive. Why didn't @emirates notify about such a situation when we were boarding the plane from Mumbai? One of the emirates' employee was being rude for no reason at all.

Poor Dhawan. He must have never expected such a chaos. Airline authorities should have informed him well in advance about everything, isn’t it?
