Virat Kohli opens up on rumours about Anushka Sharma and cricket!

Anushka Sharma has always been a target for fans and internet when Kohli comes into the equation. Even before their marriage, she faced backlash for coming to watch a match when Virat got out for a duck.

Recently, Farokh Engineer's comment has created a storm, to which, the mostly silent Anushka Sharma chose to reply.

Now Virat Kohli has broken his silence and spoke about the matter. “She came for one World Cup game against Sri Lanka and the family box and the selector box was different, and there was no selector in that box. She came with two friends. As I said, she is known, she’s been successful at a very high level so when people take her name, it gets noticed,”  told Kohli to India Today.

“So much has been said about her and so much comes out about her. The value system that she has and her beliefs and the nature she has, it won’t allow her to go against rules and protocols. So I don’t know why people have wanted to sensationalise stories by taking her name because she’s a soft target. We both had been ignoring it for a while,” he said.
