We are praying that your form comes back, Shaheen tells Kohli

Stars from Pakistan and India have been interacting with each other during practice sessions at the ICC Cricket Academy ahead of the Asia Cup 2022 match on August 28.

On Thursday, the likes of Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant, Yuzvendra Chahal and KL Rahul interacted with Shaheen Afridi, who is sidelined due to an injury. 

During the chat between Kohli and Shaheen, the Pakistan pacer told the premier India batter that he is wishing for him to find form again.

Kohli, last hit a century in 2019 against Bangladesh in a day-night Test and ever since then, the three-figure mark has eluded him. This year, the right-handed batter was unable to even register a fifty against England in the multi-format series.

During the interaction between Shaheen and Kohli, the India batter first checked up on Pakistan pacer. And after that, Shaheen was heard saying: "Aapke lie dua kar rahe hai aap wapis form me aaye (We are praying that your form comes back)".

Kohli was then seen having a smile on his face, and both Shaheen and the India batter shook each other's hands.

Earlier, fans showered a lot of love on a previous video where Kohli went up to meet Pakistan captain Babar Azam as the duo shook hands.
