Watch: Pakistani video online gets viral showing Virat Kohli in Pakistan cricket lineup for T20 World Cup final, Indian twitter reacts.

In a video surfaced online from Pakistan shows a combined XI of Indian and Pakistani cricketers for a match. No, it’s not some solidarity. Instead, the video is trying to convey that this is how Pakistani cricket team will look, “once they conquer over India”.

Pakistan observes its defense day on September 6. On this day, the country remembers the sacrifices made by its soldiers on defending the borders.

Thus, on this occasion this video came on internet with Kohli dawning the colour green by 2025. The video tries to potray that India and Pakistan went on a war, and the Islamic nation won it and conquered their neighbours.

As a result, Indian cricketers become Pakistani players, and Virat Kohli features for the Pakistan team by 2025, in which, a commentator announces a match is between Pakistan and England and he introduces the two openers for Pakistan “two legendary batsmen Babar Azam and Virat Kohli”.

Watching the match at her home, a girl tells her father, “Dekhna aaj toh Virat Kohli hi match jeetwayega (Virat Kohli will win us this match today, you will see).” To this, her father replied: “Virat Kohli na pehle India ki team mein hota tha (Virat Kohli used to be in Indian team).” To which the children present reply with a surprised look: “Kaun India? (Who is India?)” The man then replies with a conceited smile.

Watch the video

India and Pakistan are always under a political turmoil, and the cricket is always affected by it. Recently, tensions between India and Pakistan have once again fueled, after Indian government’s action in Kashmir, which is a disputed territory between both the nations.

The video online brought the twitter in split with cricket fans from both the nations fighting against each other over this video.
