PM Modi had noted earlier in the day that sports has always been a powerful bridge between India and Australia, strengthening people-to-people ties through shared passion, respect and teamwork.

In a post on X, he said, "Delighted to witness young sporting talent in action at the MCG. Watching children play cricket, Kabaddi and Australian rules football was a wonderful reminder that sport has a unique ability to connect people. India and Australia share a deep sporting bond. As both our nations prepare to host major global sporting events in the years ahead, there is immense potential to deepen cooperation in sports, youth engagement, infrastructure and talent development."
