With anticipation building for Sunday's Men's T20 Asia Cup showdown between India and Pakistan in Dubai, three Indian cricket stars - spinner Kuldeep Yadav, all-rounder Rinku Singh, and wicketkeeper-batter Jitesh Kumar - were spotted enjoying a laid-back lunch at Raju Omlet in Business Bay on Friday.

The outing has already stirred chatter among fans, with some wondering if the street food haunt could be a budding lucky charm for the Men in Blue. After all, back in February, captain Rohit Sharma and Kuldeep Yadav dined at the same spot just before a Champions Trophy clash against Pakistan in Dubai.

Today's return by Kuldeep, this time with Rinku and Jitesh, has reignited that playful superstition. Nakul Meherish, co-founder of Raju Omlet, couldn't hide his excitement.“I believe this is lucky,” he told Khaleej Times.

“Last time, they came on a Friday before the Sunday match, and India won convincingly. I spoke with Kuldeep today, and he said he loves the food and vibe here. It's an honour to host them, and maybe our omelettes do bring a little magic.”
