Anushka Sharma was disappointed after Virat Kohli got out at WTC Final.
Anushka Sharma reacts as Virat Kohli loses his wicket at 49 runs during the second innings of WTC Final between India and Australia.
Anushka Sharma was visibly heartbroken after Virat Kohli got out at 49 during the WTC final against Australia taking place at the Oval Ground in London. The actress, who cheering for her cricketer husband from the stands, was seen sitting in her seat in a state of silence as Virat headed back to the dressing room. Virat made 49 runs of 78 balls before he was dismissed.
During India’s second innings, taking place on Day 5, Virat Kohli was on the crease alongside Ajinkya Rahane and making steady runs. However, Virat lost his wicket, falling one run short of his half century. Virat was caught by Steve Smith in the slips. The cricketer was facing a ball by Scott Boland. Following his dismissal, the cameras panned to Anushka, who was visibly heartbroken.
Following Virat’s dismissal, Ravindra Jadeja walked in and was sent back to the dressing room in the second ball, scoring no runs for the team. At the time of reporting, Rahane is on the field, contributing 41 runs, with Srikar Bharat who was on the crease with 15 runs. India stands at 206 for 5 at the time of reporting.
Anushka has been attending cricket matches to show Virat her support. Earlier this year, she was at almost all the IPL matches Virat played as part of the Royal Challengers Bangalore team. The team had a steady run but couldn’t make it to the qualifiers. Anushka travelled with Virat and the team throughout the series, cheering him on in the matches.
On the work front, Anushka Sharma will be seen in Chakda Xpress. Anushka will be essaying the role of the cricketer Jhulan Goswami in the movie. The biopic is inspired by the journey of Jhulan Goswami as she moves up the ladder despite the problems created by misogynistic politics to fulfill her dream of playing cricket for India. This would mark the actor’s first ever project when Anushka Sharma is going to portray the character of a cricketer. The film is slated to release directly on Netflix.
