If there`s one cricket match that becomes intense and gives us an adrenaline rush, it has to be India vs. Pakistan. As the Asia Cup 2023 kicked off, India secured a glorious win against Pakistan by 228 runs yesterday. Virat Kohli and KL Rahul played impressive innings and scored illustrious centuries. Celebrating their wins were their wives and actresses, Anushka Sharma and Athiya Shetty.
