[Watch] Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma seen happily chatting with locals in London

Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma shifted to London last year.

Virat Kohli, a star Indian cricketer, was photographed strolling the streets of London with his Bollywood actress wife Anushka Sharma. Kohli has been on leave since Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) won the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 and is spending time with his family in London.

Kohli did not take part in the just-finished five-match test series against England because he declared his retirement from the longest format in May. The outstanding batsman finished his career with 9230 runs from 123 matches at an average of 46.85, including 30 hundreds and 31 fifties.

He also led India to 40 triumphs in 68 test matches, cementing his legacy as the country’s most successful test captain. Kohli has already retired from T20Is after India won the ICC T20 World Cup in 2024. He scored a match-winning 76 in the final against South Africa and was named Player of the Match.

Kohli has retired from both T20Is and tests, and will henceforth just play ODIs. India’s next 50-over match against Australia comes in October, when Kohli will be joined by skipper Rohit Sharma, who has retired from both tests and T20Is.

Kohli last represented India in the ICC Champions Trophy in 2025, where he contributed significantly to India’s victory with a match-winning century against Pakistan and a superb performance of 84 against Australia in the semi-final.

Meanwhile, a video has gone viral on social media showing Kohli and his wife, Anushka, enjoying a walk around the streets of London. He was observed conversing with residents on the streets of London and laughing with them.

Kohli and Anushka had moved to London in 2024 when Kohli had missed the England Test tour to India to be with her in the UK when his son was born. Since then, Kohli has only visited India for cricket matches and family engagements. Otherwise, he remains in London with his family and rarely makes public appearances.
