Team India, with two legends, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma reached in Australia to play a ODI and a T20I series. Like the two in India, these two stars received unmatchable love from their fans. A fan from Pakistan went to meet with Rohit and Virat. The moment was captured  in camera.

India and Pakistan faced off three times in the Asia Cup, and on each occasion, Team India stood by its decision. Even after winning the final, Surya’s team refused to accept the trophy from Pakistani minister Mohsin Naqvi and returned home empty-handed. Subsequently, in the ongoing Women’s World Cup, the Harmanpreet Kaur-led women’s team also refused to shake hands with Pakistani players during their match against Pakistan. In this tense atmosphere, Rohit and Kohli signing autographs to fans in Karachi is a significant achievement.

Autohraphs from Rohit and Virat

Kohli didn’t hesitate when Shahil, a Pakistani fan from Karachi, asked for his autograph. RevSportz shared a video on Thursday, in which the fan had been waiting outside the team hotel in Perth for quite some time, and when Kohli came out, he signed the Royal Challengers Bangalore jersey. Kohli, who was on his way to a training session, kept his kit bag on the bus and then went to the fan to sign the jersey. But the biggest surprise came when Rohit Sharma, who was already on the bus, also got off the bus and autographed the Team India jersey in Shahil’s hands.

After getting autographs from bot Sohail sai, “It was great to meet Kohli. I’ve met him before. He’s very humble. I only asked him for an autograph once. Rohit Bhai is also very nice. He was already seated inside the bus, I gestured once, and Rohit Bhai came out and signed an autograph.”

Sahil said that Rohit Bhai and Virat Bhai look very fit. Both have great style. Kohli and Rohit, along with new ODI captain Shubman Gill, were among the first players to arrive in Australia. They all arrived in Perth early Thursday morning. This ODI series is generating considerable buzz, as it will be Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli’s first international matches since India’s Champions Trophy win in March. However, much has changed in the past eight months. All attention is now focused on the future of these two veterans and whether they will be included in the plans for the 2027 ODI World Cup. Both have already retired from Test and T20 Internationals, but it is believed they intend to continue playing at least until the World Cup in South Africa.
