Team India met Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese at the Federal Parliament House in Australia on Thursday during the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi shared a message of support for the Indian men’s cricket team on X (formerly Twitter).
PM Modi shared a post that read, “Glad to see my good friend Prime Minister @AlboMP with the Indian and PM’s XI teams. Team India is off to a great start in the series and 1.4 billion Indians are strongly rooting for the Men in Blue. I look forward to exciting games ahead.”
The Aussie PM had shared a couple of images with the caption, "Big challenge ahead for the PM’s XI at Manuka Oval this week against an amazing Indian side. But as I said to PM @narendramodi, I’m backing the Aussies to get the job done."
India currently lead the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 1-0 after a commanding 295-run victory in the opening Test at Perth earlier this week. The team will aim to extend their advantage in the second Test, scheduled to begin on December 6 in Adelaide.
