NEW DELHI: South Africa cricketer Chris Morris got star-struck as he met the 23-time Olympic gold medallist Michael Phelps in the national capital on Wednesday.

Morris took Instagram to share a picture with the American swimmer Phelps.

"It's not every day you get to meet a GOAT," Morris captioned the post.
