On the eve of the Festival of Colors, cricketers from India began their Holi celebrations in Ahmedabad on their team bus. On their way back to the hotel from training at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, senior cricketers Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli joined Shubman Gill and other members of the team. The team's journey was dominated by music and colors.
On Tuesday, March 7, Shubman Gill posted a video of Team India's Holi celebration from the team bus. As he displays his singing abilities, Virat Kohli, who is holding his kit bag in one hand, can be seen drenched in colors. Shubman can be seen holding the camera and documenting the team bus's madness.
When Rohit Sharma, the captain of India, sees Gill recording the video, he gets excited and throws color at Kohli and Gill from behind. Holi will be observed on March 8, but nationwide festivities have already begun on its eve. In Mumbai, the Women's Premier League stars from India and abroad also began their Holi celebrations.
Additionally, Rohit provided photographs from the team bus of the Holi celebration. Suryakumar Yadav, Cheteshwar Pujara, Axar Patel, and Mohammed Siraj, among others, were drenched in Holi when the skipper posted selfies of them.
Before the fun-filled festival, Rohit and Gill sent their fans greetings.
In photos shared by the Indian Cricket Board (BCCI), the Holi celebrations began at the Narendra Modi Stadium dressing room. The India cricketers appeared at ease as they made the team bus to their location for the celebration. Before the Border-Gavaskar Trophy's fourth test in Ahmedabad, the star players participated in their first training session.
On social media, everyone is adoring Rohit Sharma's Holi selfie.
Since India's men's team will hold their final training session at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad before the fourth and final Test against Australia, several players will be working on Holi.
In the four-match series, India holds a 2-1 lead, but Australia, led by stand-in captain Steve Smith, overcame a 0-2 deficit to defeat India in Indore by nine wickets.
India will be guaranteed a spot in the June World Test Championship final in London if they win the final Test. After winning the Indore Test, Australia was eligible to play in the summit match.
