Fresh from a short break following India’s massive 280-run win over Bangladesh in the first Test in Chennai, Kohli, Gambhir, and Pant were spotted making their way to Kanpur in a manner that most people never imagined in their dreams, thanks to the history.

The trio took to the airport in style, sharing a buggy that whisked them through the bustling terminal at Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International Airport. The sight of these cricketing stalwarts, all representing Delhi in domestic cricket, was great evidence of the unity within the Indian cricket team.

In the viral video, Gautam Gambhir was seen engaging Kohli in an animated conversation, while the young wicketkeeper-batter Pant keenly listened to his senior player and head coach.

As the buggy glided through the airport, the spectators couldn’t help but capture the moment, as it was more than just a casual outing. While Virat Kohli looked dashing as usual in a white tee complemented with black sunglasses, Gautam Gambhir and Pant were both looking handsome in black tees.

As the video is all over the internet, the reaction of the fans flooded in, with one fan saying, "Teeno bhai babhi." Another reacted by saying, "Bromance overloaded." Some are calling them “true Delhi Boys.”

One X user said in the comment box, Virat Kohli and Gautam Gambhir are becoming Jay Veeru these days,” while another one dropped, “Gautam and Virat are the backbenchers; they have rifts between them in school, but after getting admission into college, they become good friends.”

Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli share a rich history

Meanwhile, Gautam Gambhir and Virat Kohli share a rich history that dates back to their days playing together for Delhi in the Ranji Trophy.

Over the years, they have experienced their share of fiery exchanges during the Indian Premier League (IPL), yet their camaraderie off the field has remained strong.

Following Gautam Gambhir's appointment as India's head coach, the two were featured in a BCCI special segment, where they fondly reminisced about their journey together and quashed all the rumors about the alleged rift between them following the IPL 2023 saga.

Rishabh Pant made a stunning comeback to the Test arena

On the other hand, Pant recently made his return to Test cricket in the first match of the ongoing home series against Bangladesh. Pant marked his comeback in style, delivering a remarkable performance with a century in the second innings against Bangladesh, scoring 109 runs.

The left-handed had also given a glimpse of his explosive batting with a brisk 39 off 52 balls in the first inning. His contribution was immense in India’s massive win over Bangladesh in the first Test. They will next face the Tigers in the second Test in Kanpur, starting on September 27.
