wireshark unable to capture traffic from loopback interface

0

I run a python script from scapy (using my host machine)to send packets to my virtual machine, where wireshark is installed with loopback interface , but wireshark isn't receiving any packets although they are sent from scapy successfully , my python script is >>> sendp(IP(dst="10.0.2.13")/ICMP()/"HELLOOOO",count=100)

What OS on both host and VM and what version of Wireshark?

Why do you capture on the loopback, while packets come in on a virtual network interface?
