KL Rahul: Kal match dekhne aaoge? (Will you come to watch the match tomorrow?")
Fan: Ayenge! School gaya bhaad mein (Of course! To hell with school)."
However, the stand-in captain of the Men in Blue was wise enough to advise the young kid not to pull off such adventures. After which the fan replied that there wasn't something important that he'd miss by not attending school on Thursday.
"School mein utna kuch important hai bhi nahi kal (There's nothing much of importance to do at the school tomorrow)" the young kid was heard saying in the video.
The excitement indeed is palpable in Harare as India are touring Zimbabwe for the first time in six years. Back then MS Dhoni was the Indian captain, and KL Rahul had coincidentally made his ODI debut as he scored a century at this particular venue.
The 29-yea-old will be hoping for more good memories, as he leads the Indian side after returning from a lengthy injury and covid-enforced break.
