Some partners love quietly, and then there is Virat Kohli, a man who has looked into cameras and microphones and said things about Anushka Sharma that most people cannot even bring themselves to say in private. These are things he said out loud, in interviews and conversations, when the question was about cricket, and he somehow still found a way to bring it back to her. Here are five of them.
‘You see me standing here because one person has put things in perspective for me. That’s Anushka!’
After scoring his 71st international century against Afghanistan at the 2022 Asia Cup, one that ended a 1020-day century drought, Virat walked off the field and did not talk about technique or form. As Sportskeeda reported, he said, “You see me standing here because one person has put things in perspective for me. That’s Anushka. This hundred is for her and for our little daughter Vamika as well.” He scored the century in front of the world and then handed the credit straight to her. On the biggest stage of his sport. Out loud.
“What was more beautiful was that I was able to share it with Anushka”
As Cosmopolitan India reported, reflecting on the moment he was announced as India’s Test captain, one of the most significant moments of his entire career, Virat said, “I was emotional, I was in tears because I had never thought that I will see this day. What was more beautiful was that I was able to share it with Anushka. It was something that I will always remember.” He had just received the highest honour in Indian cricket and what stood out to him most was that she was there. That is the kind of love that does not need a grand gesture to feel enormous.
“Thank god you were born. You’re truly beautiful inside out”
On Anushka’s 34th birthday, according to Sportskedda, Virat shared a heartfelt note that read, “Thank god you were born. I don’t know what I would do without you. You’re truly beautiful inside out.” A man who has faced the most hostile cricket crowds in the world, thanking the universe for his wife’s existence. That kind of gratitude is rare and the kind every girl quietly hopes someone feels about her someday.
“Happy anniversary to my best friend and my soulmate. Mine forever”
On their first wedding anniversary, the above-stated outlet reported, Virat took to social media and wrote, “Can’t believe it’s been a year already because it feels like it happened just yesterday. Time has truly flown by. Happy anniversary to my best friend and my soulmate. Mine forever.” He did not call her just his wife. He called her his best friend first. That one line said more than most people say in an entire relationship.
“This victory is as much yours as it’s mine”
After lifting the T20 World Cup trophy in 2024, one of the biggest moments of his cricket career, Virat did not just celebrate. He sat down and wrote something for Anushka. As Gulf News reported, he shared a sun-kissed picture of the two of them and penned, “None of this would remotely be possible without you, my love. You keep me humble, grounded, and you always say it how it is with absolute honesty. I couldn’t be more grateful to you. This victory is as much yours as it’s mine. Thank you, and I love you for being YOU.” A World Cup winner giving his wife equal credit for the trophy. Every girl’s dream, put into words. Go to Source
