Anushka Sharma Pays Heartfelt Tribute To Virat Kohli After Test Retirement: ‘Only Those With A Story To Tell Succeed’
Anushka Sharma shared a touching Instagram Story honouring Virat Kohli’s Test legacy just days after his retirement from the longest format.
Following Virat Kohli’s retirement from Test cricket, Anushka Sharma shared a heartfelt tribute on social media. The Bollywood actress posted an Instagram Story celebrating Test cricket’s true champions, in a subtle nod to her husband. Kohli announced his retirement on May 12, ahead of India’s tour of England, leaving fans across the world stunned. Notably, Kohli’s retirement call came only a few days after Team India captain Rohit Sharma’s Test retirement.
Just two days after Kohli announced his retirement from Test cricket, Anushka Sharma shared a touching Instagram story, shedding light on the qualities that helped her husband thrive in the longest and most demanding format of the game.
"That's why only those with a story to tell succeed in Test cricket. A story so long and deep that it doesn't care for the pitch conditions - grass, dry, home, or away," Anushka's story read.
