AB de Villiers is one of the close friends of Virat Kohli and they have forged their bond playing for RCB in IPL, for years. Virat Kohli loves to spend time with ABD off the field as well and they share their personal life updates with each other, too. Recently, Virat Kohli without stating the reason, took leave from first two Tests against England.
People started speculating that he is trying to spend time with his mother, who is ill. Some talked about his wife Anushka Sharma being pregnant with their second child. The couple did not announce anything on social media or to press, officially. Virat Kohli’s brother condemned the reports about their mother’s health on social media.
Some vile haters of Virat Kohli started stating that Virat has become too selfish and he is not prioritising country over personal life. So, AB de Villiers in an interview to an online portal defended Virat. He stated that even he is missing watching Kohli with the bat but it is important for him to spend as much time as he can with his wife as they are expecting their second child.
Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma named their first child as Vamika and about the second pregnancy have been very secretive. Well, AB de Villiers confirming that Virat is going to be parent again does put a stop to all unnecessary speculations. Now, it is to be seen if Virat will be able to play the next three Tests against England or not.
