Fans have fun as Kohli and boys gear up for SA challenge


London, Jun 3 (IANS): After playing their warm-up matches, Team India has been gearing up for their World Cup opener against South Africa to be played at The Oval, here on Wednesday.

Amid the training sessions, the team has been seen having some fun times in England in order to keep themselves fresh ahead of their first match, the pictures of which has been regularly posted by the official Twitter handle of BCCI.

On Saturday, the BCCI posted a picture of Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya sweating it out alongside strength and conditioning (S&C) trainer Shanker Basu and asked Twitteratis to caption the photo.

Twitterati, who have been anxiously waiting for India's first outing at the showpiece event, promptly obliged to the request and decided to have some fun.

One user captioned the photo as "Every parent in malls stopping their kids." Another Twitter user made the reference of trending #JCBkikhudayi and captioned the image -- "Pandya: Chor re meko #JCBKiKudhayi dekhni jani hai."

During the practice sessions on Saturday, skipper Virat Kohli had injured his right thumb while practicing, thus giving a major injury scare ahead of India's opening clash against South Africa.

However, it was later confirmed that he has not sustained any serious injury.

The Faf du Plessis-led side, which have lost both their opening matches against England and Bangladesh, would be desperate for a win when they face the Men in Blue on June 5.
