Gautam Gambhir, the captain of India Maharajas, and Shahid Afridi, the captain of Asia Lions, were competitors on the cricket field and shared a tense rivalry when India and Pakistan faced off.
However, in the first match of the Legends League Cricket (LLC) Masters, Gambhir and Afridi shook hands at the toss, but Gambhir seemed to have a cold reaction.
This moment went viral on social media, and fans created memes.
The Asia Lions defeated the India Maharajas by 9 runs in the LLC Masters match.
India lost their opening batter Robin Uthappa for a duck, but Gambhir scored 54 runs off 39 balls.
However, no other Indian batters could contribute much, and the team fell short of the Lions' total.
The next LLC Masters match will be between the India Maharajas and the World Giants on March 11, 2023.
