In one of the clips, Virat is seen cutting his birthday cake as everyone around him sings ‘Happy Birthday’ and claps. Anushka, who stands by his side, feeds him the first piece of cake, after which he feeds her a piece. He then kisses her on the forehead and gives her a hug.
Other videos showed the cricketer getting cake smeared on his face by his RCB teammates. It is a double celebration for Kohli and RCB team as their team made it to the playoffs this time. It is also notable that Anushka and Virat Kohli are expecting their first child.
From legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar to Telugu cinema Superstar Mahesh Babu, many people wished the seasoned cricketer for his birthday. Social media handles of IPL teams also wished him on this special day. However, the post uploaded by the twitter handle of Mumbai Indians disappointed their own fans.
Majority team’s social media handle wished Kohli by uploading a picture of him with their team’s captain. Check out their posts below :

Meanwhile, Mumbai Indians, while uploading the birthday post of Kohli, added a picture of Kohli and Hardik Pandya and wished the Indian captain for his birthday. “Happy birthday, Virat Kohli” read their twitter post’s caption.

On seeing Hardik Pandya instead of Rohit Sharma in the post, fans smelled something strange and started trolling the admin of the social media handle for not uploading appropriate picture. Some even asked whether he needs some pictures of Rohit and Virat together. Few fans went one step ahead and confirmed that there is a rift exists between the team management and the captain.

A controversy took place after Rohit Sharma’s name excluded from the squad of team India for the upcoming Australia tour. The cricketer’s hamstring injury caused his exclusion from the squad. His exclusion created huge controversy despite BCCI’s statement which said that his health update will be monitored thoroughly. “The BCCI Medical Team will continue to monitor the progress of Rohit Sharma and Ishant Sharma.” they said in their tweet.
Surprisingly, on the very same day of squad announcement, official twitter handle of Mumbai Indians came up with a video showing Rohit Sharma practicing in the nets, fuelling the speculations of Rohit’s injury and seriousness. Watch the video below :
