Did Virat Kohli pose with Kendra Lust?

No, Virat Kohli did not pose with Kendra Lust, and the photo is generated through Artificial Intelligence (AI). The interesting thing is that the photo’s background is from the United Kingdom and it was shared just yesterday.
Although Kohli lives in London, he has been in India for more than a month. In the last week of November and the first week of December, he played in the ODI series against South Africa. He was playing in the Vijay Hazare Trophy (VHT) 2025-26 last month and is now gearing up for the ODI series against New Zealand.
Moreover, Lust is known on social media for his humorous and fake AI-generated posts featuring celebrities, designed to grab the attention of viewers. She also shared a photo with Bollywood actors Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan on her account last month on the latter’s birthday. However, that photo was also generated by AI.
Meanwhile, Kohli is looking forward to performing well in the ODI series against New Zealand. He rocked with the bat for Delhi in VHT 2025-26, smacking a century and a half-century in his two appearances.
He is now training in Vadodara with the Indian team, where the first ODI will take place on January 11. India and New Zealand will lock horns in three games, followed by a five-match T20I series. It will be India’s first assignment in 2026, ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup 2026 in February.
