Wazhma Ayoubi has carved a niche for herself in social media, all thanks to her unwavering passion for sports. Hailing from Afghanistan and now residing in Dubai, she has become a prominent social media influencer who understands the art of capturing the hearts of her online followers.
Despite the vast geographical distance separating her from the action in Sri Lanka, where the 2023 Asia Cup is unfolding, Wazhma remains a fervent supporter of her two favourite teams. Her primary allegiance naturally lies with Afghanistan, but she also holds a special place in her heart for Team India.
India’s impressive performance in the Super 4 stage, including a victory over arch-rivals Pakistan and another triumph against Sri Lanka, secured their spot in the final.
Ahead of the start of India versus Bangladesh showdown in Colombo, Wazhma dropped a surprising bombshell. She shared a photo of herself donning a Team India jersey with an intriguing twist.
‘I will change it when I get a new one signed by the GOAT himself’
In her tweet, Wazhma revealed that Virat Kohli once wore this particular jersey during the India versus Afghanistan clash at the 2022 Asia Cup.

That match etched its place in history books when Kohli achieved a remarkable milestone, scoring his maiden T20I century and marking the first international century in nearly three years. In a stroke of incredible luck, Wazhma is the fortunate fan who received this priceless jersey as a heartfelt ‘gift’ from the right handed batter himself.
“The jersey I am wearing to support my favorite team is the one worn by king @imVkohli himself in the #AsiaCup22, at the #INDvAFG match. It is also signed by him. I will change it when I get a new one signed by the GOAT himself. #AsiaCup23 #INDvSL #AsiaCup23Final,“ the Afghan influencer mentioned in her tweet.
