They added a warm request for privacy:

“As we bask in this special time, we humbly seek your blessings and good wishes. We also appreciate your understanding in respecting our privacy.”

Kohli and Sharma wed in 2017. Their daughter Vamika celebrated her third birthday in January 2024. In 2021, Kohli prioritized family by returning home during the Australia series to be with Sharma for Vamika’s birth.

He initially withdrew from the first two England Tests and, with BCCI’s support, ultimately stepped down from the entire series due to personal reasons.
