The 4-Test Border-Gavaskar Trophy series is just a day away, with the first Test starting on Thursday at Nagpur. The build-up to the high-octave series has been intense, with Australia holding an intricate training camp on the outskirts of Bengaluru. Meanwhile, some of India's players for the upcoming game were spotted on Twitter on Tuesday making hilarious tweet exchanges for some suspected brand work.
Virat Kohli wrote on Twitter. 'Nothing beats the sad feeling of losing your new phone without even unboxing it. Has anyone seen it?' Quoting the tweet, Kuldeep Yadav responded with a photo of an unopened box, '@imVkohli Oh! Yeh box? Bhai, I found it next to our hotel pool. What a stunning design! But @DineshKarthik took it from me. Aapne pucha usse?'
Fans on Twitter were quick to react at a time when players' focus should ideally be on the upcoming Test rather than brand work.
Here's the tweet:

India will eye a third-straight Test series win against the Aussies
Regarding the upcoming BGT, India will be eyeing a third consecutive series victory against the visitors. The two involved players have been named in the Indian squad for the upcoming 4-Test series against India. While the Cricketer turned commentator, Dinesh Karthik, will be in action inside the commentary box.
Kuldeep is expected to be an integral part of India's spin attack, while Virat Kohli, as suggested by former Indian spin icon Harbhajan Singh could end up being the X-factor against Australia.
After being out of form for a considerable period of time, Kohli has delivered a series of impressive performances in the limited-overs format, starting with his hundred in the Asia Cup. He'll be eyeing a similar return to form in the longest format, ending his century drought in Tests. The 34-year-old last scored a test ton back in 2019.
Here are some of the best tweets trolling the Indian cricketers:
