2014 had the Ice Bucket Challenge and 2016 has definitely been the year of the Mannequin Challenge.
During a Mannequin Challenge, a group of people are frozen and pose like mannequins for a lengthy period of time as a camera goes across and covers everyone present.
The Indian cricket team, after their victorious Test series against England, had a go at it. Captain Virat Kohli is seen kissing the Anthony D’Mello Trophy at the start of the video before the camera captures all the players and staff of Team India.

This wasn’t the first time that the Mannequin Challenge had been performed during the series. The commentators for the series had a go at the same during the first Test at Rajkot.
