Both of them are sportspersons who take a lot of pride in representing their respective nations Sania Mirza talked about the banter she had with Shoaib Malik, when they were dating, about supporting India.

“For some reason, he loved to play against India. So, when we were dating, whenever we spoke about it, I always used to say, ‘I’ll support India no matter what. And then he used to say, ‘My record against India I want to tell you is the best that I have.’ He’s been around for a long time and I think he has had an amazing career. I am really proud of him,” she said.
