Take a look:
Anushka Sharma flew to Ahmedabad to extend support to her cricketer husband Virat Kohli as Team India is playing against the Australian team for the final match of the Cricket World Cup 2023. Anushka regularly attends Virat’s matches to support him and the internet cannot stop gushing over their support for one another.
During India’s batting in the match today, Virat Kohli scored 50 runs and the stadium went into a frenzy. Anushka Sharma, who was at the Narendra Modi Stadium with her mother, gave the cricketer a standing ovation. This moment went viral on social media and won many hearts online.
Anuska has been Kohli’s cheerleader in the stands on intense match days. The actress was seen hooting for Kohli when team India faced Pakistan in the same Ahmedabad stadium last month. Last week, Anushka was seen seated in the stands to watch and support Kohli as India faced New Zealand in the finals. The couple did not shy away from displaying PDA as Kohli hit his 50th century and broke Sachin Tendulkar’s record.
After the century, Anushka shared a heartfelt post to honour his win. “God is the best scriptwriter! Utterly grateful to him for blessing me with your love, and to watch you grow from strength to strength and achieve all that you have and will, being honest to yourself and to the sport always. You are truly God’s child," she said.
