Virat Kohli's 'My World' post for wife Anushka Sharma grabs David Warner's attention

Meanwhile on Friday (September 2), Kohli posted a sun-kissed photo of his actor wife Anushka Sharma on Instagram and captioned the pic 'My 🌎❤️'. Anushka is preparing for Netflix film titled "Chakda Xpress", based on the life of India Women pace legend Jhulan Goswami.

The high-profile batter's post also grabbed former Australia captain David Warner's attention as he left a comment on the post which read, 'Lucky man mate'.

Soon after Warner's comment sundry of Kohli's fans started cornering Warner as his comment left some confused and some of them took it out of context. 

Replying to one of the fans who questioned Warner, the Australia opener said: "We are very lucky to have supportive wives," while to another, he replied: "It's a saying we use in Australia, like I would say I'm lucky to have Candice Warner. So, when we say to others, we say "You're lucky, mate" or "You’re blessed, mate". Interpretation is always going to be different."

After Warner posted the clarification, many fans came to his support, but there were also those who continued to question him. The icing on the cake came when Kohli himself posted a comment that shut down all trolls. "I know, mate," he replied.
 

Meanwhile, after the instrumental knock against Hong Kong on Wednesday (August 31), Kohli had become the player with the highest average in the shortest format of the game.
