Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India]May 19 (ANI): Indian cricketer Virat Kohli was seen talking to his wife Anushka Sharma on a video call after scoring a century against Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Thursday.

Many videos and pictures of Virat and Anushka talking on video call started surfacing on social media.

Anushka also praised her husband’s brilliant innings. On Instagram, he shared a collage picture on his stories and wrote, “That’s (a bomb emoticon). What a shift

Talking about the match, Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis’ breathtaking partnership of 172 secured an impressive win and two crucial points for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) after a remarkable chase against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) .

Kohli ended a four-year long wait for a century in the Indian Premier League.

This was Kohli’s first century in the ongoing IPL 2023; He also tied former teammate Chris Gayle (6) for the most hundreds in league history. The star batsman notched up his first IPL century since April 2019.

Notably, Kohli now has the joint-highest number of centuries in the history of the league along with Chris Gayle (6).

The RCB openers were in good form but were criticized for their slow starts; But, on Thursday night, he proved his doubters wrong, bringing up his century in 62 balls. Although Kohli has been in scintillating form in IPL 2023, his strike rate in the middle overs has come under scrutiny.

Apart from dominating the powerplay, Kohli enjoyed his fine form in the match in the middle overs. He completed his century in 62 balls in the 18th over.

Kohli was eventually dismissed for 100, having left the pitch straight after reaching the milestone; Bhuvneshwar Kumar took the wicket of RCB’s star in the 18th over. (ANI)
