After being ruled out of the Afghanistan ODI series, Virat Kohli has caught headlines for his off-field activities, whether it be the launch of his brand ‘One 8’ under his co-ownership or the latest family time with wife Anushka Sharma and his children. On Tuesday, 16 June, a picture of Virat Kohli with his son Akaay went viral on social media, with the star cricketer enjoying family time holding his son in his arms. Another snap of Virat and family, including Kohli and Anushka Sharma, at a park in London got the attention of the fans on the internet. It is well known that Virat Kohli is only active in the ODI format for India, stepping away from the T20 format after the World Cup 2024 and Test cricket the next year. However, the chatter regarding the star cricketer stays abuzz in the interviews and podcasts. Most recently, former Australian pacer Brett Lee sparked buzz with his statement about how Kohli would have fitted perfectly into the great Australian team. ‘Kohli would’ve fitted into any Australian cricket team’: Brett Lee Speaking about Virat Kohli’s stature and his abilities as a cricketer, Brett Lee said the Indian cricketer would have fitted into any Australian cricket team during his prime. Lee said this while answering a question from Atharva Sudame during an episode of the ‘Silly Point’ podcast. When asked which current Australian player would have suited in the ‘Golden Era’ Australian team, Aussie pace legend said, “Kohli, I know he’s getting towards the back end of his career as well, and I had the chance to play against him. Kohli in his heyday would’ve fitted into the Australian cricket team.” Brett Lee backed his statement with the reasoning that Virat is aggressive, has fitness capacity about him, and worked very hard on his game. Contrary to his on-field image, Kohli is a great guy off the field, and Brett Lee said that’s what makes his personality synonymous with the Australian pride that the community banks itself on. Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma moved to London in 2024 Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma moved to London in 2024 to escape constant media attention and public scrutiny in India. They want to raise their children in a more private, normal environment, away from the relentless spotlight. The couple still visits India for work but prefers the peace and anonymity London offers. Their decision was confirmed by Dr Sriram Nene and Kohli’s childhood coach, citing the need for family privacy and a balanced life.
