Gutpill, who has featured in only one match so far for MI, decided to take timeout from his schedule to spend tome with slum kids from Dharavi. The Auckland-born aggressive batsman, this time around however, was seen with the ball in a video he uploaded on his Instagram account.

Guptill somehow managed to bowl with kids busy taking a video of him. "Had a good morning today at Dharavi playing cricket and having a guided tour. A very cool place to visit. Highly recommend going there if you are ever in Mumbai! Thank you to @bethelocaltoursandtravels for the tour! @lauramcgoldrick13 @mitch_m81 @mumbaiindians #India #Mumbai #Dharavi",” he wrote.

Foreign cricketers seem to be embracing Indian culture. Recently, Mumbai Indians' fielding coach Jonty Rhodes performed a puja for his daughter named India.
