Kohli, who had been on the road since IPL 2020 in the United Arab Emirates, went on paternity leave after the first Test against Australia in Adelaide to be home for the birth of his first child.
The couple, who tied the knot on December 11, 2017, had announced the news of Anushka’s pregnancy in August last year, amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
