Virat Kohli in Pakistan jersey? Here's the truth of viral pictureAuthor : AZIndia News Desk
India haven't played against their arch-rivals Pakistan since the 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup as the bilateral ties between the two countries haven't been in a great position for a few years now. However, whenever in the ICC tournaments India face off against Pakistan, skipper Virat Kohli leads from the front.
This time though, not just India, Virat has also taken Pakistan by storm as a picture on social media went viral with the Indian skipper's name on it. It isn't an Indian jersey though, it is Pakistan's ODI jersey, which has Virat and his jersey No 18 written on it. The picture shows a person driving a motorcycle with the jersey on. So what's the reality of it?
Actually, an Australian journalist and cricket writer Dennis Freedman shared the picture on social media of the same. First, he shared the picture of the biker with the jersey on then he shared the photo of himself in that jersey, a customised one, which he has had made for himself.
India and Pakistan, however, will not be locking horns against each other in the ICC T20 World Cup later this year as both the teams are in different groups. While India will be playing five-match Test series against England and the IPL before the World Cup, Pakistan will be touring England and West Indies as part of their preparation for the big tournament.
