The fan, who was taking an autograph from Williamson, asked him not to score against Pakistan but hit a century against India as they are their arch-rivals. India and Pakistan have a history of rivalry, so the fan's request made sense. Williamson laughed off the conversation and left the place without saying much. 

Watch the video here:

India and Pakistan will clash against each other on February 23, at the Dubai International Stadium, Dubai. While all the other games will be held in Pakistan, India will play their games in Dubai. Keeping the players' safety in mind, the Indian government didn't allow the players to travel to Pakistan.
