🚨 PAT CUMMINS REVELED AFTER VIRAT KOHLI WICKET IN WC 2023 🚨 Pat Cummins Said 🗣️, “When we were standing together after Kohli’s wicket fell, Steve Smith suddenly said, ‘Boys, just listen to the crowd for a second.’ Then we paused for a moment and felt it the whole stadium had gone silent like a library. There were 110,000 Indians there, yet there was complete silence all around. I’ll remember this moment for the rest of my life, that I went to India and silenced a crowd of over one lakh people.”

DINESH KARTHIK ON VIRAT KOHLI & HOW VIRAT SUPPORT HIM IN HIS COMEBACK: - "Virat called me and said, ‘You’re doing really well.’ And then on the physiotherapy table with Basu sir, he said, ‘Dinesh is playing really well, he should be a part of the Champions Trophy squad. An endorsement like that, from a person like him, means a lot. He told the world through the media that what I was doing was special and that I should be in the World Cup team. For someone like Virat to acknowledge my journey that meant everything". (The Quest talk with Nipun Marya).
