Rizwan says “It was the first time I was meeting Kohli. The kind of things I heard about him… like other players told me that ‘Virat is aggressive’. But the way he met me before the match. And met later, that was amazing. If I said ‘he’s our Virat Kohli’, it’s because we’re all one family. Obviously, when we enter the field, no one is a star. There we don’t have any brotherhood or anything like that. But off the field, when we met Kohli, and some of our players met MS Dhoni too, we met with a lot of love and affection. Nothing was different.
Let us tell you that bilateral cricket between India and Pakistan is closed, both the teams face each other in ICC events. In fact, Rizwan was a teammate along with India batsman Cheteshwar Pujara for Sussex in the English County Championship this year, where both have spent quality time. Pujara recently extended warm wishes to Rizwan on his birthday on June 1. At the same time, Rizwan spoke openly about his friendship with Pujara.
