Watch: Virat Kohli visits South Indian restaurant with Anushka Sharma, later makes stylish appearance at event | Off the field News
Mumbai: Ahead of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia, Virat Kohli attended a bank’s event in Mumbai and was also snapped at a South Indian restaurant in the city with wife Anushka Sharma.
Kohli, dressed in a full dark brown outfit, met with the fans and had a fun time chatting with host Gaurav Kapur and Zaheer Khan.
In another set of pictures, Kohli and Anushka posed for photos with the staff of the eatery in Bandra.
Also on Thursday, Kohli officially announced an association with Sporting Beyond, his new team.
Kohli and rest of the Indian team will soon head to Australia for the five-match Test series that begins in Perth on November 22. Kohli enters the series with questions over his future particularly with him turning 36 and a poor run of form.
Kohli’s recent struggles with the bat have put his place in the team under scrutiny. He scored just 93 runs in six innings during India’s recent series loss to New Zealand at home.
This poor performance saw Kohli drop out of the top-20 of the ICC Test batting rankings for the first time in a decade. He currently sits at 22nd spot.
Adding to the pressure, India’s hopes of qualifying for the World Test Championship final are in jeopardy. A poor showing against Australia could see them miss out.
Kohli and 15 other Indian cricketers will leave for Australia next week. After the first Test in Perth, the teams will move to Adelaide for the second Test, starting December 6th. It will be followed by contests in Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney.
