IND vs AUS: Virat Kohli recently earned his 75th international century in the fourth and final Test match between India and Australia. Once the milestone was reached, rumours that the batsman had been ill circulated, but Indian skipper Rohit Sharma has since put such rumours to rest.
Anushka Sharma, a well-known Bollywood actress, and Kohli revealed on social media that Kohli accomplished the accomplishment despite being ill, which was motivational in and of itself.
“Maintaining this poise while playing through illness. inspiring me constantly,” Anushka posted a tale on Instagram.
Afterwards, Prithi Narayanan, the wife of Indian spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, reiterated this. She backed up Anushka’s assertions and stated that Kohli succeeded despite having a fever.
“When your fever breaks and tada!,” Narayanan wrote on her Instagram account featuring an image of Kohli’s jubilation post his 75th century.
But, when questioned about it during the post-fourth-test press conference between India and Australia, captain Rohit Sharma responded that he didn’t believe Kohli was ill. Sharma urged the media to be sceptical of everything they read on social media.
“Never trust what you read or see on social media. Do not believe Virat was ill; only that he was coughing slightly, “Rohit stated.
He didn’t appear to be ill: Axar
Axar Patel, Kohli’s colleague with whom he had a 162-run partnership for the sixth wicket, added that based on his physical condition and the way he was moving between the wickets, Kohli didn’t appear to be ill.
“I’m not sure. He didn’t appear to be ill from the manner he was rushing in between the wickets. He had such a strong partnership and ran so well in the sweltering heat. It was enjoyable to bat with him,” The left-arm spinner commented.
India was able to take the lead over Australia after the first innings ended thanks to Kohli’s mesmerising performance, and they were also able to draw the match, assuring their qualifying for the World Test Championship final when Sri Lanka fell to New Zealand in a nail-biting drama.
