He's too young, Virat Kohli's mother on Danielle Wyatt's marriage proposal

Mumbai: It is not known how serious is English cricketer Danielle Wyatt, who proposed to Team India's vice-captain Virat Kohli. The 23-year-old right-arm off-break England's bowler, Danielle Wyatt was so impressed with Virat Kohli's recent batting, she openly proposed (via twitter),

Virat Kohli's family, however, has indirectly "rejected" the proposal.  

"It is not the right age for Virat to marry now," Virat's mother, Saroj Kohli, speaking exclusively from her Delhi home, said over telephone on Sunday morning. 

"We can't think of his marriage for another 4-5 years. He has 'just started' playing cricket. He has to concentrate on his batting and career ahead," his mother added.

Virat's mother was not willing to say whether the family would accept the foreigner if the woman cricketer is prepared to wait till then. "It is for you to speculate. Write whatever you want to write," she hastily said. 

News about actor Anushka Sharma's alleged love affair with Virat Kohli has been doing the rounds for quite some time now. The actress was also believed to have gone to New Zealand a few months ago and met Virat in Sri Lanka where he was holidaying earlier this year. Though, Danielle Wyatt was not prepared to buy this argument. "Nah he ain't", she had tweeted on Saturday. 

Interestingly, Virat, if thinking to marry the woman cricketer in future can seek Brijesh Patel's advice. Patel, now a team manager in Bangladesh, was kissed by a woman onfield after she saw him play.
