In the ongoing Asia Cup 2023, Pakistan squared off India in a highly anticipated Super Four match at R. Premadasa Stadium, Colombo, on Sunday.

However, the unstoppable rain yet again forced the showdown to be abandoned for the second time due to unfavorable weather conditions.

On the brighter side, there is a glimmer of hope this time as the match has been rescheduled for the reserve day, allowing India to resume their innings at a score of 147 for 2 in 24.1 overs.

Amid the downpour, a wave of humor surfaced online, all credit to the unforgettable Kohli-Shadab memes that took the internet by storm.

The Kohli-Shadab memes took center stage, overshadowing everything else. Fans couldn't help but recall the moment when these arch-rivals displayed their friendship before their first match on September 2 in Kandy.
