Meanwhile, Virat Kohli might be an aggressive player but his fans love him unconditionally. Being the most followed cricketer in the world, Virat’s fans never fail to surprise him. One such fan wowed the Indian captain!
The Guwahati based fan made a portrait of the cricketer in three days and nights by using parts of old phones. The BCCI’s official Twitter page shared a video of Virat meeting the fan and signing his masterpiece.

On the other hand, the opening T20 match between India and Sri Lanka didn’t get off to a perfect start at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati. Rain played spoilsport, delaying the match from the start and eventually cancelling the game. Though the ground staff put in all their efforts to dry the ground, yet the downpour increased with time.
But, the capacity crowd in Guwahati made a stunning environment in the stadium by singing the Indian national song ‘Vande Mataram’ in complete synchronisation and full voice. Also, the fans turned on their phone’s flashlight to make the ground more compelling.
Sharing the video on their social media platform, BCCI captioned it as, “Guwahati, you beauty 😍 #INDvSL”.
