ODI World Cup: Virat Kohli, Sunil Narine’s doppelgangers spotted during England-Afghanistan match | Cricket News

NEW DELHI: The ODI World Cup match between England and Afghanistan witnessed ‘special guests’ in the stands at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Sunday.
The doppelgangers of star India batter Virat Kohli and West Indies’ mystery spinner Sunil Narine were spotted watching the match as a picture of them started doing the rounds on social media.

Talking about the match, Afghanistan secured a convincing 69-run victory over the defending champions England in a remarkable upset at the World Cup.
This win marked their second-ever triumph in the ODI World Cup history, elevating them from the bottom of the group standings.
Afghanistan had entered the match with a track record of losing 16 out of their last 17 World Cup games, with their lone victory against Scotland in 2015.
Opting to bat first, Afghanistan managed to post a total of 284 runs, powered by a scintillating 80-run performance from opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz and a half-century by Ikram Alikhil.
In response, England faltered and were all out for 215 runs, with Harry Brook being the only batter who adapted well to the conditions, contributing a resilient 66 runs. The spin duo of Mujeeb Ur Rahman and Rashid Khan played a pivotal role by capturing three wickets each.
