Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma were spotted at Wimbledon, attending Novak Djokovic's fourth-round match against Alex de Minaur. The power couple witnessed Djokovic's victory over his Australian rival, with the Serbian star ultimately winning 1-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4.
Kohli, who had previously announced his retirement from Test cricket, was present at the Centre Court alongside his wife, Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma. Photos of the couple at the event have since gone viral. Kohli also took to Instagram to share his thoughts on the match, lauding Djokovic as a "gladiator". He wrote, "What a match. It was business as usual for the gladiator".
Djokovic's path to victory wasn't without its challenges. He lost the first set 1-6, marking the first time in his Wimbledon career that he had lost a set by such a significant margin. However, the tennis star made a comeback, securing the subsequent three sets to advance further in the tournament.
The match was a star-studded affair, with other notable figures such as Roger Federer, Joe Root, and James Anderson also in attendance. Kohli and Djokovic share a friendship that reportedly began through Instagram messages last year. Djokovic had also shared a post for Kohli after his 50th ODI century and his retirement from Test cricket.
Kohli's presence in London follows his retirement from Test cricket and his recent IPL victory with Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in June 2025. He is expected to remain in the United Kingdom with his family for a period. While he has retired from Tests and T20Is, Kohli will continue to play for Team India in the 50-over format. He will be seen in the ODI series against Australia in October.
Kohli's Test career spanned 123 matches, during which he scored 9230 runs at an average of 46.85, including 30 centuries and 31 fifties.
