Legendary Indian batter Virat Kohli grabbed the limelight with a friendly gesture towards Babar Azam in the India vs Pakistan Champions Trophy match. Led by Rohit Sharma, India are currently facing Pakistan in their second match of the marquee event in Dubai. 

Kohli Embraces Babar Azam With Warm Hug

Meanwhile, talismanic batters Virat Kohli and Babar Azam showcased their camaraderie on camera during the very first over of the high-octane clash. Whenever India and Pakistan play against each other, the pressure gets sky-rocketed on players and fans from both sides. 

However, Kohli and Babar kept their friendly bond intact, as a heartwarming moment kickstarted the electric face-off at Dubai International Stadium. 

It's worth mentioning that Babar Azam has consistently been compared to Virat Kohli. Although Kohli has established himself as one of the greatest the game has ever seen, Babar has managed to create his own legacy with numerous match-winning knocks for Pakistan. 

Having said that, both players have never shied away from showering praise on each other and expressing their friendship on and off the field. 

Pakistan Get A Steady Start vs India

Babar Azam and Imam-ul-Haq have provided Pakistan with a steady start against their arch-rivals India. After winning the toss, Pakistan captain Mohammad Rizwan opted to bat first and the decision has worked in his team's favour so far. As of writing, Pakistan were 24 for no loss, with Imam and Babar batting on 8* and 10*, respectively.
