The cricketer had opted out of the ongoing Test series against England, citing personal reasons. After that, ex-cricketer AB de Villiers announced on YouTube that Virat and Anushka are expecting a second child. However, later, he retracted his statement.

Kohli and Sharma married in December 2017. In January 2021, the couple was blessed with a baby girl.
