India skipper Virat Kohli, who is arguably the most popular cricketer in the world, stepped out for team practice in Colombo and the Lankan fans were awestruck to see their idol.


The BCCI posted a video on its Twitter handle in which Kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara can be seen walking amidst tight security, even as the fans gathered at the gates to click pictures with the cricketers.



A few lucky ones even managed to click selfies with the Indian cricket stars.


Dressed in a sleeveless India jersey, Kohli was seen showing off his tattoos while dragging a kit bag while Pujara had a bag strapped onto his back.


India are currently in the island nation for a full series which start at Galle on Wednesday.


They will play three Tests and five ODIs before wrapping off with an one-off T20I in early September. They are currently playing a warm-up match against Sri Lanka Board's President XI in Colombo.
