The Australian cricket team took a trip to Mcleod Ganj on Friday ahead of the fourth and final India-Australia Test.

The team chose to delay their practice session on the eve of the fixture and instead, paid a visit to Tibetan spiritual leader Dalai Lama at his monastery. In his usual cheerful manner, the Dalai Lama spoke to the cricketers and their accompanying support staff at length, even playfully pulling Steve Smith’s nose.

The Australian team gifted His Holiness a team jersey signed by the entire Aussie squad.
