Anushka Sharma's special message to Virat Kohli after T20 World Cup win

The good news was also mixed with a little disappointment as modern-day-legends of the game, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma announced their retirement from the shorter format.

Reacting to India's victory, Virat Kohli's wife and Bollywood actor Anushka Sharma had shared a post on Instagram. Sharing pictures of players in raw emotions, Anushka wrote, "Our daughter's biggest concern was if all the players had someone to hug them after she saw them cry on tv...Yes, my darling, they were hugged by 1.5 billion people." Lauding the phenomenal victory and legendary achievement, she congratulated the team.

She also put a special post to celebrate the achievements of her husband, who bid adieu to the format. She wrote, "AND...I love this man. So grateful to call you my home- now go have a glass of sparkling water for me to celebrate this!"

Earlier, Virat Kohli was seen talking to Anushka and kids over a video call from the stadium after the final victory. Team India have won over South Africa by 7 runs.
