After months of IPL-initiated bitterness, it's finally a patch-up for Indian ace Virat Kohli and Afghanistan's Naveen ul Haq! 

With broad smiles on their face, the duo hugged out their differences during the India-Afghanistan World Cup game in Delhi.


While in the first innings when Naveen ul Haq came out to bat the crowd chanted 'Kohli, Kohli', the same way when the 24-year-old came to bowl against the Indian run-machine, the crowd again mocked the Afghan cricketer.


However, the former Indian captain then gestured to the crowd to not make fun of the bowler and Naveen ul Haq in reply then approached his IPL adversary and gave him a heartwarming side hug.


To those unversed, Virat and Naveen were involved in an ugly spat after a match between LSG and RCB in IPL 2023 where former cricketer Gautam Gambhir also got involved.
