Virat Kohli to relocate to London with family, confirms ex-coach
Rajkumar Sharma, the childhood coach of cricket icon Virat Kohli, has confirmed that the star player is planning to move from India to London. Speaking to Dainik Jagran, Sharma revealed that Kohli along with his wife-actor Anushka Sharma, and their two children Vamika and Akaay will be relocating soon. The move is expected to take place in the near future but no specific timeline has been provided yet.
The couple has a property in London
Notably, Kohli has been spotted in London several times over the last few years, which shows his love for the city. The couple's son Akaay was also born there on February 15, this year. They own a property in London, too, which will likely be their home after the move. Sharma revealed that currently "Kohli is spending most of his time with his family apart from cricket."
Kohli's future cricket commitments and London plans
Currently, Kohli is playing in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia. His next big tournament will be the Champions Trophy, the schedule and venues of which are yet to be announced. While it's not clear when his next trip to London is planned, it could likely be between CT and IPL 2025. Despite a recent dip in form, Sharma remains confident about Kohli's performance in upcoming matches.
'Virat is still very fit, not too old to retire'
Sharma dismissed speculation about Kohli's retirement, saying he is nowhere near that stage and could continue playing for another five years. This means fans might see him in action at the 2027 World Cup in South Africa. "Virat is still very fit and not too old to retire," Sharma said, emphasizing his belief in Kohli's enduring cricketing prowess.
