NEW DELHI: As rain interrupted the play between India and Australia at the Gabba in Brisbane, the fans in the stands found something to smile about when the camera zoomed in on India's batting stars Virat Kohli and KL Rahul. During the break in the third Test, Virat was seen sharing KL Rahul’s lunch, a moment that quickly captured attention.
Pictures of the two cricketers enjoying their meal together went viral on social media.
“School vibes,” one fan commented.
“Brothers from another mother,” another fan added.
Indian captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and chose to field in the third Test.
The five-match series is tied at 1-1 after India won the first Test in Perth, while Australia claimed victory in Adelaide.
Australia made one change, bringing in speedster Josh Hazlewood, who returned from a side strain, replacing Scott Boland.
India made two changes, with Ravindra Jadeja coming in for Ravichandran Ashwin, and Akash Deep replacing fast bowler Harshit Rana.
