Fans saw two of their favourite cricket players share an emotional moment during the rain-soaked third Test match between Australia and India in Brisbane. Virat Kohli and Ravi Ashwin, two seasoned Indian players, shared a touching moment in the Indian dressing room as the rain delayed the game at the Gabba.
India was given a target of 275 runs when Australia declared their second innings at 89 for 7 in the Test match. With just 54 overs remaining in the day and more potentially on the horizon, the match’s outcome was in doubt.
Virat Kohli and Ashwin, however, were observed having a lengthy and profound talk that lasted more than half an hour during the rain-delayed play.
With their shoulders pressed together, they talked about cricket and maybe a lot more. Ashwin was embraced by Kohli as the conversation came to a close. With Kohli’s arm slung over Ashwin’s shoulder, they sat close and gazed at the rain.

The game has been postponed to a draw and cancelled since it appears like the rain may not stop. Currently, with two games remaining, the series is tied at one. The famous Boxing Day Test will now take place in Melbourne, beginning on December 26.
