Former South Africa captain AB de Villiers recently stirred up speculation about Virat Kohli’s absence from the first two Tests against England, suggesting that Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma were expecting their second child. Kohli had withdrawn from the India squad citing personal reasons, leading to uncertainty about his return for the remainder of the series.
In a YouTube live session, de Villiers initially hinted at Kohli’s situation, mentioning that Kohli was spending time with his family and expressing anticipation for his return. However, de Villiers later clarified that he had made a mistake, retracting the claim about Kohli and Anushka expecting a child.
De Villiers emphasized the importance of family and respecting Kohli’s decision to prioritize it. He acknowledged his error and wished Kohli well, hoping for his swift return to cricket.
As speculation continues regarding Kohli’s availability for the upcoming Tests, India has yet to announce their squad for the third Test, fueling further uncertainty about Kohli’s participation in the series. Reports suggest that Kohli may miss additional matches beyond the first two Tests.
