Indian skipper Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant and opening batter Prithvi Shaw all took to social media to cheer for the Indian women’s cricket team ahead of their World Cup campaign opener against arch-rivals Pakistan on Sunday.
They also urged fans to come out and show their support to the Women in Blue during their World Cup 2022 campaign.
The Women’s 50-over World Cup begins as New Zealand take on the West Indies on March 4 before all eight teams play each other once to decide the top four, with the winner crowned in Christchurch on April 3.
Virat Kohli on Instagram wrote: “No better time to cheer for the #WomenInBlue and show the strength of #HamaraBlueBandhan than this, ’cause it’s time for the ICC Women’s World Cup 2022! So set your alarms for 6.30 AM on Mar 6, 2022 & watch #PAKvIND on @starsportsindia & Disney+Hotstar | ICC #CWC22.”
