Kohli was completely touched by this gesture from the opponent team and appreciated them by posting a picture of the jersey on his Instagram story and wrote, "Thank you @hkcricket. This gesture is truly humbling and very very sweet."
The message came with Kohli struggling with a lean patch heading into the Asia Cup.
This gesture from both sides truly kept the spirit of sportsmanship alive and left the fans impressed.
Coming to the match, a brilliant 28-ball 62* from Suryakumar Yadav and an unbeaten 44-ball 59 from Kohli powered India to a total of 192/2 after Hong Kong put them in to bat.
After a slow start, India looked set for a sub-par total, but Suryakumar upped the ante at the death to help India finish with a flourish. He hit six fours and six sixes - four of which came in the final over.
Hong Kong showed intent with the bat in the Powerplay, but once India's spinners came on, they faded away.
Babar Hayat top-scored for them with a 35-ball 41, while Kinchit Shah made 30 off 28. Hong Kong eventually finished with 152/5.
Hong Kong still have slim hopes of making it to the Super-4 stage of the Asia Cup but they need to beat Pakistan in the final Group A encounter to make that happen.
