KL Rahul and Mayank Agarwal are great friends, it's no secret. The cricketers, who are from the same state of Karnataka, have opened many innings for their state and Punjab Kings in the Indian Premier League.

Even when they're not on the field, the two have a strong bond. Whether it's light-hearted social media banter or enjoying each other's success, cricket fans rarely see such friendship.

Their bond is so strong that, despite competing for the same slot in Team India, their mutual adoration stays unaltered. When asked about their link, Mayank, 31, believes that their shared desire to see each other grow strengthens their bond.

“We share a great bond as friends. He's seen my journey and vice-versa. It's been really nice that we've had that kind of friendship, even though somewhere down the line, we probably competed for the same spot.”

“But I think the mindset has always been to help each other. To grow,said Mayank about his friendship with Rahul on Backstage with Boria.
