The Indian team has reached Dubai ahead of the mega event which will be taking place from tomorrow as the Asian teams will sweat it hard to prove their Asian paramountcy. Earlier, Pakistani legend Babar Azam and Indian legend Virat Kohli were spotted greeting each other in a video uploaded by the Indian cricket board on social media.

The video spread like wildfire and fans from both nations started sharing the picture on their social media handles right away. Babar Azam won hearts by nodding to sign a ball from his fan despite his busy schedule. The video went viral in Pakistan and the skipper was lauded for his humility and gesture. The Delhi batter and former India skipper Virat Kohli is also known for his humbleness despite his stature off the cricket field.

One such incident occurred at the place where the players were warming up ahead of the game set to get off the mark from tomorrow (August 27). A fan from Pakistan approached the Indian legend to take a picture with him and was stopped by the security guards immediately. The Delhi batter who took cognizance of the fan's request took some time to take a picture with him.

"I am not a fan of anyone but Virat Kohli, for whom I have come from Pakistan hoping to get a picture clicked with him. I waited for an entire month for this so the moment he finished his practice and was about to go back to his hotel, I tried a lot. He is an amazing person besides being a fabulous cricketer. He listened to me and agreed to my request of getting the selfie clicked," he told PakTV.
