The Indian cricket team met with the entire Manchester United squad at Carrington ahead of their 4th Test against England, which will be played in Manchester.

The social media post from Manchester United with Indian players has gone viral, as images shows Manchester United players Matheus Cunha, Bruno Fernandes and others wearing Indian cricket jerseys, while cricket stars Jasprit Bumrah, Rishabh Pant, coach Gautam Gambhir and others sport Manchester United's iconic red shirts.

Harry Maguire was also seen with Mohammed Siraj as the duo shared a light moment, which was captured. Gambhir was also captured with Man United coach Ruben Amorim, who astonishingly was seen wearing India colours.

Taken on a green field, the photo captures both teams standing together in a circle, creating a fun and unexpected mix of two beloved sports. Fans on X are buzzing with excitement and humor. Some joke that Gambhir could try his hand at goalkeeping, while others imagine Cunha bowling fast deliveries. This playful crossover has sparked curiosity about the reason behind it, which was facilitated by Adidas, which is the kit sponsor for both the Indian team and Man united.

The timing also aligns with recent news. Matheus Cunha, who joined Manchester United from Wolves for £62.5 million on June 12, 2025, adds a fresh face to this collaboration. Pairing him with Fernandes in cricket gear highlights the club's effort to blend cultures. Meanwhile, seeing Bumrah, Pant, and Gambhir in United kits bridges the gap between cricket's popularity in India and football's global appeal.

This event could be a smart move to boost Manchester United's presence in India, as the Red Devils are already hugely supported in India.
