Virat Kohli’s 3-word Instagram post with Anushka Sharma breaks the internet, leaving fans curious and talking nonstop.
Indian cricket icon Virat Kohli has again made headlines, not on the pitch, but on social media. Former skipper, who is currently playing only in the ODI season, posted a brief yet powerful update with wife actress Anushka Sharma that left fans and followers amazed.
Being typically low-key on social media, Virat wrote a three-word caption: "Been a minute", with a photo featuring Anushka Sharma. The subtle post went viral within no time, garnering more than 9 million likes within 15 hours. Fans swarmed the comments, joyful at the sight of the cricketing icon after her disappearance from public life.
The post also highlighted Kohli’s slightly greying beard, which has become a talking point among fans, adding to the fascination around the photo.
While his teammates, including Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul, were regrouping in Bengaluru for fitness tests, Virat remained in the United Kingdom with his family. He recently completed a physical examination in London, having received an exemption from team obligations.
Even after distancing himself from Tests and T20Is, Kohli remains a force to be reckoned with in cricket discourse and remains the most powerful influence on the ODI scene. His forthcoming inclusion in the ODI series against Australia is eagerly looked forward to by fans and cricket experts alike.
Virat’s last competitive outing was during the IPL 2025 season, where he led Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) to their first-ever IPL title. He finished as RCB’s top run-scorer with 657 runs, proving his enduring dominance in domestic cricket.
Even off the field, Kohli’s brand appeal remains unmatched. He tops the 2025 list of the most powerful celebrity brand values in India, underscoring his influence beyond cricket.
In the ongoing Asia Cup 2025, Kohli could witness one of his long-standing records being challenged. India opener Abhishek Sharma is close to breaking Kohli’s record for the most runs by an Indian in a multi-nation T20I tournament, a record of 319 set during the 2014 T20 World Cup.
