Virat Kohli shared a heartfelt message for his wife, Anushka Sharma, expressing gratitude for keeping him grounded at all times. The talismanic batter has seen a lot of ups and downs in his illustrious career but the one thing that has been a constant is the support of his wife.

Kohli didn’t have a great T20 World Cup campaign with the willow heading into the finals against South Africa on June 29. However, against South Africa, at the Kensington Oval in Barbados, the former India captain played a gritty knock of 76 off 59 balls, hitting six fours and two sixes. After India won the nerve-wracking match by seven runs, the legendary cricketer was awarded Player of the Match.

This victory is as much yours as it’s mine. Thank you and I love you for being YOU @anushkasharma,” Kohli wrote on Instagram with photo of the couple.
