Indian batter Virat Kohli and Pakistan skipper Babar Azam were seen exchanging pleasantries ahead of the all-important clash between the two sides in the upcoming Asia Cup 2022.

The two batters are coming into the tournament in contrasting forms. While Babar has been scoring runs at will across all three formats, Kohli has struggled to put together a significant innings.
