On Saturday, October 15, the captains of all 16 T20 World Cup teams addressed news conferences in Melbourne. Pakistan’s Babar Azam and India’s Rohit Sharma shared the stage with them. Captains of both the arch-rival teams were asked questions about the upcoming big game where they play against each other. In addition, they were also asked about what kind of relationship they share.
“Rohit Sharma is older than me. I try to take as much experience as possible from him as he has been playing for a long time,” said Babar.
“Whenever we meet the Pakistan players, we meet them in the Asia Cup and now… we talk about how things are back home, how the families are. Even our previous generation cricketers also told us the same thing. We just talk about what is going on, how is life and what new car they have bought or they are about to buy,” said Rohit during the media session.
The much-anticipated match between the two is scheduled for October 23 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
Tickets for India vs Pakistan marquee T20 World Cup 2022 clash were sold out within minutes in Melbourne.
