Ishan Kishan and Abhishek Sharma were involved in a hilarious moment while watching what appeared to be the first ODI between India and the West Indies. However, the two India stars were not watching the actual match, but a cricket simulation of the contest.
The pair were seen closely following the virtual gameplay before their reactions to several moments in the simulation turned the viewing session into an entertaining one. Kishan and Sharma are currently preparing for the 2026 Asian Games, where they will represent India in the men’s cricket tournament.
Ishan Kishan and Abhishek Sharma react to hilarious simulation
The simulated match appeared to recreate the first ODI between India and West Indies, with virtual versions of the players taking part in the contest. Kishan and Sharma watched the action closely and could be heard reacting to what was happening on the screen. At one point, Sharma noticed that Gurnoor Brar appeared to keep bowling in the simulation. The India opener could not resist making a comment about the repetitive sequence.
“Gurnoor Brar keeps bowling,” Sharma joked, leaving Kishan amused by the situation.
The duo also reacted to the virtual version of Prasidh Krishna. The simulated bowler’s exaggerated action caught their attention, with Kishan and Sharma laughing as they watched him deliver the ball. Rather than taking the simulation too seriously, the two batters appeared to enjoy the unusual experience. Their spontaneous reactions made the clip entertaining, particularly as they picked out small details from the virtual recreation of the ODI.

Kishan and Sharma set for India’s Asian Games campaign
Kishan and Sharma are part of India’s men’s squad for the 2026 Asian Games in Aichi-Nagoya. India will enter the tournament as the defending champions after winning the gold medal in the previous edition. Shreyas Iyer will captain the Indian side, with Tilak Varma named his deputy.

However, it was the hilarious reactions of Kishan and Sharma to the simulated version of the contest that provided a lighter moment for fans.
