Cricket fans in India and Pakistan are always excited to see India and Pakistan players in the same frame. Be it the encounter between the two arch-rivals or the players coming together to play for a same team, the excitement is always high. More recently, Cheteshwar Pujara and Mohammad Rizwan came together to play for the Sussex team in the County Cricket Championship.
Ahead of day three of the game against Durham, the two were spotted having a conversation during the practice sessions. The Sussex team’s official Twitter handle posted the video of the two conversing. “Rizwan x Pujara pre-match prep,” read the caption of the tweet.

Coming back to the match, Durham scored 223 runs batting first. In reply, Cheteshwar Pujara’s double century helped Sussex score 538 runs in their first innings. He scored 203 runs in 334 balls with the help of 24 boundaries. He also had an important partnership of 154 runs in 275 balls with Mohammad Rizwan.
