Cricket in 2018: 7 instances when Virat Kohli was involved in the controversy

3. Anushka Sharma posing with Indian High Commissioner to the UK in London

Another major controversy that surrounded Virat Kohli was when India toured England this year. The entire side was invited to visit the Indian High Commissioner to the UK in London. While the team and the support staff were present at the venue, Anushka Sharma came in as a surprise package.

She was the only wife of a cricketer who was present over there and stood right in the first row along with the skipper. This didn’t really go well with the fans as the vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane was standing in the last row and many opined that it was disrespectful.
