The German midfielder took to the social media platform ‘X’ and in the clip, Müller unboxed the jersey and donned the Indian jersey, which had his name and jersey number inscribed on the back.

In his post, the 34-year-old also thanked former India captain Virat Kohli, while wishing the team best wishes as captioned, “Look at this, @imVkohli Thank you for the shirt, #TeamIndia! Good luck at the @cricketworldcup #esmuellert #Cricket”
