Team India’s ace batsman Virat Kohli was recently spotted catching up with Pakistan captain Babar Azam during the Men in Blue’s practice session in Dubai ahead of the upcoming Asia Cup 2022.
The moment between the two iconic modern-day cricketers was appreciated by fans from both countries.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India shared a video on social media on Wednesday showing the Indian players entering the stadium for practice. Notably, Pakistan and Afghanistan also trained at the same venue earlier in the day.
Virat Kohli interacted with the likes of Rashid Khan and Babar Azam, while Hardik Pandya was also captured having a conversation with Afghan players.
Babar Azam is one of the cricketers to have come out in support of Virat Kohli amid all the talks around the latter’s lackluster form. Taking to his Twitter account, the Pakistani batter shared a special message for Kohli last month.
Meanwhile, the Indian cricket team has landed in Dubai for the much-awaited Asia Cup 2022, which gets underway on August 27 in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
