Virat Kohli and His Mother

Virat Kohli and His Mother

Virat Kohli is currently the best all-format player in the world without the shadow of a doubt and his cricketing venture serves as an excellent blueprint for young Indian talents. The Delhi-born cricketer’s dedication, work ethic and quick learning as a player are key aspects that any upcoming cricketer can aspire to emulate. Renowned for his dedication to the sport and his terrific commitment to representing the country, he always makes his presence count for the team and he rarely misses games.

Recently, Kohli grabbed the headlines after he withdrew himself from the squad in the first two Tests against England in the home series, citing personal reasons. The veteran spoke to skipper Rohit Sharma, selectors and the think-tank before opting out of the first two games. The BCCI, in their press release, respected Virat Kohli’s decision at this time and kept full trust in the remaining squad members to deliver the goods in the Test series.

While the BCCI urged the media and the fans to respect Virat Kohli’s privacy at this time, there were already rumours of Kohli missing the games for India owing to his mother’s health. However, Virat Kohli’s brother, Vikas Kohli rubbished the rumours by adding that their mother is fine and doing well. Vikas Kohli took to his micro-blogging Instagram portal to post a message.

“Hello everyone, I have noticed that there is this fake news about our mom’s health been circulating around. Let me clear that our mom is absolutely fit and fine. Also I would request everyone and also the media, not to spread such news without proper information,” Vikas Kohli added.

Meanwhile, Team India led by Rohit Sharma lost the Test opener against England at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. The hosts had a great opportunity to take the first lead in the series but they let the opportunity slip away from their hands. England staged a great comeback in the second innings and turned the game around to clinch the first game by 28 runs. The second Test will get underway on February 2, Friday at Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam.
