Finally the wait is over, King Kohli’s magic was seen in Perth. Virat Kohli, who was out for just five runs in the first innings, roared fiercely in the second innings of the Perth Test. Virat Kohli completed his half-century in 94 balls. Virat Kohli held the Indian innings together after Jaiswal’s dismissal and gave the gift of a half-century to his fans. By the way, another special fan was supporting Virat Kohli. The name of this special fan is Anushka Sharma. Virat Kohli’s wife Anushka looked quite nervous in Perth. When Virat opened the account, there was a smile on his face but somewhere he was also worried that Virat might get out early.
When Virat narrowly escaped
Virat Kohli was batting well till tea break. But after that his attention got distracted a bit. He was saved from being bowled on his personal score of 41 runs. At the score of 48, his stump was once again saved from flying by Nathan Lyon’s ball. Anushka was watching all this and as soon as Virat was saved from getting out, lines of worry appeared on her forehead. But King did not disappoint his queen and scored a brilliant half-century. Anushka stood up and clapped for her king and her video went viral on social media.
