Indian cricketer Virat Kohli was seen with his wife Anushka Sharma on the streets of Vrindavan in Uttar Pradesh just a day after announcing his retirement from Test cricket. The couple visited the Vrindavan Dham to seek blessings of Premanand Ji Maharaj. Notably, the 36-year-old called off his Test career via Instagram post on the morning of May 12.
“As I step away from this format, it’s not easy — but it feels right. I’ve given it everything I had, and it’s given me back so much more than I could’ve hoped for. I’m walking away with a heart full of gratitude — for the game, for the people I shared the field with, and for every single person who made me feel seen along the way,” Kohli wrote on his retirement post on Instagram.
After Kohli’s retirement, his wife Anushka Sharma also shared a heartfelt post on Insta where she wrote “They’ll talk about the records and the milestones — but I’ll remember the tears you never showed, the battles no one saw, and the unwavering love you gave this format of the game. I know how much all this took from you. After every Test series, you came back a little wiser, a little humbler — and watching you evolve through it all has been a privilege.”
