As India gear up for another high-voltage clash against Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2023 Super Four, fans are praying for a game without any rain interruption. Colombo’s weather has been the biggest talking point in the ongoing continental tournament, forcing the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) to assign a reserve day for Sunday’s face-off. While the threat of a possible washout looms large over the upcoming clash, a viral video – featuring Shehnaaz Gill and Virat Kohli – has taken the internet by storm.

Renowned photographer Viral Bhiyani shared a behind-the-scenes video of a Star Sports promo shot in which Kohli and Gill could be seen gearing up to entertain the viewers. Though the duo didn’t feature together in a single frame, the activities behind the curtain were too much entertaining.
“XCLUSIVE BTS VIDEO! Virat Kohli aur Shehnaaz Gill ek hi samay pe, ek hi jagah par! @starsportsindia par kuch toh chal raha hai! Can you guess what’s going on,” the caption of the video read.

Spotlight on Kohli
Kohli will be in focus when he walks out to bat for the second time against arch-rivals Pakistan on Sunday in Asia Cup 2023. His previous outing in Kandy was short-lived, courtesy of Shaheen Shah Afridi who knocked over the former India skipper in the powerpaly.
In the next game against Nepal, he didn’t get to bat as the dynamic duo of Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill smashed unbeaten fifties to hand India a 10-wicket win along with the ticket to Super Fours.
The year 2023 has been terrific for Kohli as the ace Indian batter has scored runs in plenty and got as many as four centuries, Tests and ODIs combined. He is close to getting 1000 international runs this year and also just 98 runs away from 13000 runs in the 50-over format.
