Abhishek Sharma led the charge with 74 off just 39 deliveries, smashing six fours and five sixes (Image source: @vlp1994/X)During the highly anticipated Super 4s match of the Asia Cup 2025 between India and Pakistan at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, a moment of off-field drama captured the Internet’s attention. Indian fans were seen chanting “Kohli-Kohli”, targeting Pakistani pacer Haris Rauf, who was fielding near a section of Indian fans.The viral video reminded social media of the unforgettable clash between India and Pakistan at the 2022 T20 World Cup, where Kohli smashed Rauf for two stunning back-to-back sixes in the second-last over at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.However, Rauf did not step back and responded to the chants with a fighter jet gesture, presumably in reference to the military clash between the two nations in the wake of the Pahalgam terror attack. When fans continued chanting “Kohli-Kohli,” Rauf encouraged them, gesturing with his hand as if to say, “Louder!”Despite putting in an impressive performance with the ball, finishing with figures of 4-0-26-2, Rauf’s efforts could not avert Pakistan’s loss. Videos of the exchange have since gone viral on social media.Watch here:Indians chanting KOHLI KOHLI after seeing Haris Rauf 藍藍藍#INDvPAK #AsiaCup2025 pic.twitter.com/zL7cRbopQM— Vinesh Prabhu (@vlp1994) September 21, 2025 WATCH: Harris Rauf was instigating Indian fans during the India vs Pakistan matchHe was gesturing with his hands that planes have crashed.This disgusting and incompetent player was also chanting 6-0 during practice sessions. pic.twitter.com/zhwQGhYHEZ— Sensei Kraken Zero (@YearOfTheKraken) September 21, 2025The video amassed a deluge of reactions, with a user commenting, “Clown genes activated soon after hearing kohli’s name.” Another user wrote, “Pakistan are still in the operation sindoor aftermath zone.”“King Kohli’s Fear in Rauf’s Ear,” a third user reacted.Also Read | ‘Let us off the plane’: Donald Trump’s H-1B visa fee sparks chaos on Emirates flight in San FranciscoMeanwhile, India successfully chased down a target of 172 runs.
