The much-awaited answer to what happened to Virat Kohli has been revealed by himself and his wife Anushka Sharma in a massive update on Tuesday. The star couple welcomed their second child, a baby boy named Akaay, on February 15. In a social media post, Anushka announced the arrival of Vamika's brother and requested fans and the media to respect their privacy.
“With abundant happiness and our hearts full of love, we are pleased to inform everyone that on 15th February, we welcomed our baby boy Akaay and Vamika’s little brother into this world! We seek your blessings and good wishes in this beautiful time in our lives. We request you to kindly respect our privacy at this time,” read the post.
The former India captain and the Bollywood actress got married in 2017. One of the most loved sports couples, Kohli and Anushka are undoubtedly the envy of everyone with their strong bond and support for each other. The two were blessed with their first child, a daughter named Vamika, in January 2021.
Finally reason for Kohli's absence from the Test series is revealed
Kohli was named in India's Test squad for the ongoing five-match home series against England. Days before the start of the series, he withdrew from the squad due to personal reasons. He was expected to join the camp for the final three Tests, but that did not happen as the Indian Cricket Board confirmed that the star batter would miss the entire series.
Notably, this is the first time in his 13-year career that Kohli has missed an entire Test series. There was no update on what's going on with the cricketer and speculations were rife that the couple is gearing up for the birth of their second child. It was further compounded when former South African captain AB de Villiers revealed that his friend is going to be blessed with another child. He later apologised for spreading 'false information', but now things have turned out to be true.
