The FIFA World Cup fever has finally hit the Indian Cricket team as well. After the Men in Blue wrapped up India vs Bangladesh’s first Test match in Chittagong, the team would be looking to relax and watch the final between Argentina and France. The stand-in captain was asked about Team India’s favourites in the final.

“I don’t know who is really an Argentina or a France supporter so we will just enjoy the game today. We will all watch the game together and we will have a good meal and watch the game and like I said five days of time is really very tiring,” said the 30-year-old.

“So, just going to enjoy tonight’s game and it’s a final of a World Cup,” said India’s stand-in Test captain KL Rahul in the post-match press conference.

“We all love football and most of you must have seen, we are already playing football. I don’t know most of the guys on the team whichever team we were supporting are all out already. So, there were few Brazil fans, there were few England fans,” added the right-hand batter. Rahul also spoke of the FIFA game that players use to play during their downtime on tours.

FIFA was big early on- Rahul

“Even back in the rooms, FIFA was big early on and now boys are relaxed a little bit and there are other priorities.”

“So, it will be interesting to watch the game today so we will be divided a little bit and that’s what makes sports watching fun right, it will be fun,” explained KL Rahul.

Argentina vs France game will be held at the Lusail Stadium on Sunday. It starts at 8:30 PM IST.
