PM Modi, Australian PM’s Day at Ahmedabad Stadium with Chai, Selfies

Ahmedabad: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has shared pictures of his visit to Narendra Modi stadium in Ahmedabad with “good friend” Anthony Albanese of Australia to watch a Test match between India and Australia. The two Prime Ministers were greeted with loud cheering and applause as they took a lap of honor at a stadium to celebrate years of friendship between the two countries.

“Cricket, a common passion in India and Australia,” said PM Modi as he shared pictures of the two leaders enjoying the fourth Test match between India and Australia.

The two leaders took a lap of honor in a “chariot” fashioned out of a golf cart, before the fourth Test match between India and Australia.

PM Modi and Mr Albanese handed over Test caps to their respective team captains, Rohit Sharma and Steve Smith.

They also met players from both sides and stood beside them when the national anthems of India and Australia were sung.

“On the field, Australia and India are competing to be the best in the world. Off the field, we are co-operating to build a better world,” the Australian PM said in a tweet.

India is leading the Border-Gavaskar series by 2-1. A win in the final Test will ensure the team qualifies for the final of the ICC World Test Championship, where they will be facing Australia in London from June 7 onwards. (a Syndicated feed)
