In a candid revelation back in 2023, the renowned cricket maestro Virat Kohli shed light on a period of personal struggle that significantly impacted his relationship with his wife, the esteemed actor Anushka Sharma. The cricketing icon, known for his fierce determination on the field, bared his vulnerabilities off it, acknowledging the toll his career's downturn took on his demeanor and interactions with loved ones.
Kohli, who exchanged vows with Anushka in a picturesque ceremony in Italy in 2017, unveiled the challenges he faced during a particularly rough patch in his professional journey. Speaking frankly during an interview with teammate Suryakumar Yadav for bcci.tv, Kohli admitted to being in denial and grappling with frustration, which, in turn, led to him being "cranky" and "snappy" in his personal space, including towards his wife Anushka.
Here's what he said:
"I was cranky and snappy, and that wasn’t good for my wife, Anushka Sharma and other family members. So I had to take responsibility and put things into perspective."
Reflecting on his journey, Kohli emphasised the necessity of confronting his own shortcomings and embracing vulnerability as integral parts of his growth as both a cricketer and a person. He underscored the importance of staying true to oneself even during moments of adversity, acknowledging that denying one's struggles only exacerbates the situation.
Kohli's introspective discourse resonated not only with fellow athletes but also with fans and spectators who witnessed his transformation from a struggling player to a resilient leader.
Currently, Kohli has withdrawn from the first two Tests against England citing personal reasons, as announced by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) earlier.
