Virat, who is undoubtedly a doting father, husband and son, has always been expressive on social media when it comes to expressing admiration for his loved ones and acknowledging the efforts of those around him.

The former Indian skipper is currently participating in IPL 2023 with Royal Challengers Bangalore. RCB have their third-last league phase match on Sunday, against Rajasthan Royals in Jaipur.

They are seventh in the points table with 10 points in 11 matches. Still in contention for the playoffs, they will be hoping to win their remaining matches and will also want other results to go in their favour.

Kohli has been in good form in the ongoing season and has registered 420 runs in 11 matches, at a strike rate of 133.75 and 42.00 average. He is RCB’s second-highest run-scorer this season, behind captain Faf du Plessis. Du Plessis leads the Orange Cap race with 576 runs in 11 games.
