On Friday, Team India registered a much-needed eight-wicket win over Scotland to leapfrog every other team in terms of the net run rate and rise to the third position in the points table. The thumping win not only added two more points to India’s tally but kept their semifinal hopes alive.
After Ravindra Jadeja and Mohammed Shami helped India restrict Scotland to 85, KL Rahul and Rohit Sharma were off to a flyer while chasing. Rohit was dismissed for 30, but KL Rahul went on and scored the fastest T20 World Cup half-century in just 18 balls. KL Rahul also lost his wicket, but skipper Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav completed the job as India chased down the target in just 6.3 overs.

From their official Twitter handle, Cricket Scotland shared several pictures where Virat Kohli can be seen interacting with the Scotland team members. So were Rohit Sharma, Ravichandran Ashwin and Jasprit Bumrah.

They even shared a picture with the caption (jokingly), “So guys how do you go about playing on a green one in Aberdeen in April?"
