The Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese interacted with the members of the Indian cricket team at Parliament House in Canberra on Thursday—ahead of their two-day match against Prime Minister’s XI.
The PM of Australia praised star batsman Virat Kohli and pacer Jasprit Bumrah, who took eight wickets in the first Test against Australia at the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy.
The Australian leader complimented Bumrah for his great effort. He also shook hands with Kohli and congratulated him for his ton at Perth, remarking jocularly, “As if we weren’t suffering enough.”
To this, Kohli replied, “Always got to add some spice.”
Albanese laughed and said, “Well, India you know.”
