Anushka’s Unwavering Support for Virat

Anushka has always been Virat! biggest supporter, and her presence in the stands is a testament to their strong bond. Recently, when Virat announced his retirement from Test cricket, Anushka took to Instagram to pen an emotional note for her husband. In the note, she spoke about the hard work, sweat, and dedication that Virat has given to the format, and how she has been privileged to witness his journey.

A Heartfelt Note from Anushka to Virat

"They’ll talk about the records and the milestones — but I’ll remember the tears you never showed, the battles no one saw, and the unwavering love you gave this format of the game. I know how much all this took from you. After every Test series, you came back a little wiser, a little humbler — and watching you evolve through it all has been a privilege. Somehow, I always imagined you’d retire international cricket in whites — But you’ve always followed your heart, and so I just want to say my love, you’ve earned every bit of this goodbye ❤️."

A Dream Come True for RCB and Virat Kohli

The IPL 2025 final was a momentous occasion for RCB and Virat Kohli, as they looked to win their first-ever title. With 18 years of IPL history, RCB has never managed to lift the coveted trophy, and Virat has been a part of the franchise from its inception. Winning this season would be extra special, as the tournament is in its 18th year and Kohli’s jersey number is also the number 18. The stage was set, and the crowd was electric – all that was left to do was to wait and see if RCB could make their dream a reality.

Will RCB finally lift the IPL trophy? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure – Anushka Sharma will be cheering them on every step of the way!
