The Indian cricket team is currently locking horns with England in a highly-anticipated five-match Test series in the United Kingdom (UK). While the series currently stands leveled at 1-1 after Team India’s historic win at Edgbaston on Sunday, July 6, they will hope to continue their winning run and win their first Test series in England in 18 years.
While the side is without the likes of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravichandran Ashwin - all of whom retired from Test cricket, young players have stepped up, especially Shubman Gill, who led the side from the front with his blistering knock. Amidst the series, star Indian batter and one of the greats of the game, Virat Kohli recently made a rare appearance.

Although the couple have been living in London for considerable time now, Virat Kohli, who is coming after lifting the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 title with the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), recently made a rare appearance at the ongoing Wimbledon 2025. The 36-year-old was accompanied by his wife and Bollywood celebrity Anushka Sharma as they dropped in to watch seven-time Wimbledon champion, Novak Djokovic’s RO16 match against Alex de Minaur of Australia.

The former captain of the Indian cricket team also took to Instagram to share a story, hailing 24-time Grand Slam champion, Novak Djokovic for his win. “What a match. It was business as usual for the gladiator,” Kohli wrote. Hailing Djokovic as a “gladiator”, the 38-year-old responded to the legend, writing, “Thank you for supporting.”
It is to be noted that after losing the opening set 1-6 to the 11th seeded, the Serbian fought back to win 1-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 in a match that lasted for three hours and 19 minutes.
