Indian team reached Dubai for the upcoming Asia Cup 2022 tournament and the players got to mingle with players of other teams as well when they went for the practice sessions. Indian players caught up with Afghan and Pakistani stars and exchanged pleasantries as well.
These players included former India captain Virat Kohli, who will be under focus for his batting form, especially when India plays Pakistan in their first match of the tournament on August 28, 2022.
Last year, under Virat Kohli’s captaincy, India lost to Pakistan for the first time in any World Cup match in the same venue in 2021. This time, however, things are changed up as both teams are missing their top pacers in Shaheen Afridi and Jasprit Bumrah respectively.
Meanwhile, Virat Kohli was seen catching up with Rashid Khan in a video shared by BCCI on their official social media. In the same video, Kohli is later seen shaking hands and exchanging greetings with Pakistani skipper Babar Azam.
Yuzvendra Chahal and Hardik Pandya were also seen chatting with Rashid Khan and Mohammad Nabi in the video.
