Indian cricketers enthusiastically joined the viral 1980s retro photo trend on social media. Teenage prodigy Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, alongside senior teammates, shared a lighthearted moment reacting to AI-reimagined vintage portraits of themselves ahead of the three-T20I series against Afghanistan in Delhi.

The official X handle of BCCI posted a video titled "Vintage vibes. Priceless reactions. #TeamIndia takes on the 1980s trend", capturing the likes of Sooryavanshi, Jasprit Bumrah, Shreyas Iyer, Sanju Samson, Axar Patel, Abhishek Sharma among others, laughing at their simulated bold retro hairstyles, vintage suits, and classic pop-culture looks.

India will begin their T20I series against Afghanistan on September 13, followed by matches on September 15 and 17. All three games will be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.

The same team will then move towards the Asian Games in Japan, where India are the defending champions. The men's cricket campaign begins with the quarter-finals on September 28, with the semi-finals scheduled for October 1 and the final on October 3.
