Earlier this month, AB de Villiers, a longtime teammate of Kohli in the Royal Challengers Bangalore, revealed on his YouTube channel that the couple was expecting their second child. De Villiers shared parts of the text messages exchanged between him and Kohli.
“With abundant happiness and our hearts full of love, we are pleased to inform everyone that on February 15th, we welcomed our baby boy Akaay and Vamika’s little brother into this world,”
both Kohli and Anushka wrote.
In a press release last month, when India unveiled their squad for the initial two Tests against England, the BCCI mentioned that Kohli would miss the matches in Hyderabad and Visakhapatnam due to personal reasons.

“So I wrote to him ‘Been wanting to check in with you (sic) for a while now biscuits. How are you?’. He said ‘Just need to be with my family right now. I am doing well.’. Yes, his second child is on the way.”
But later, in an interview with Dainik Bhaskar, de Villiers would conceded, “I made a terrible mistake at the same time, sharing false information, which was not true at all. I think whatever’s best for Virat’s family comes first. No one knows what’s happening there, all I can do is wish him well.”
Despite expectations for his return later in the series, the Indian cricket board announced before the Rajkot Test that the former India captain had opted out of the remaining matches.
“Virat Kohli will remain unavailable for selection for the remainder of the series due to personal reasons. The Board fully respects and supports Mr. Kohli’s decision,”
the BCCI stated.
