Cricket knows no boundaries; players of all countries come together and play this wonderful sport and share the sportsman spirit. The recent match between Afghanistan and India was a proof of the same.
India won the test match in just 2 days. They won this match by an innings and 262 runs. This is India’s biggest victory by margin in test matches.
Indian team showed a sweet gesture at the presentation ceremony which won hearts of one and all. When India received the trophy, Ajinkya Rahane invited Afghanistan to come and pose with the trophy.
Afghanistan was playing the career’s first test match and it was indeed a great feeling for them. Such gesture by the Indian team was highly appreciated.
BCCI shared the video of the same on Twitter;
