The Delhi dasher, who became the fastest player to register 6000 runs in 144 ODIs, played to the galleries after displaying a few wristy flicks.

The Bollywood star, who has especially flown to Hyderabad to support Kohli, responded by waving and cheering as the 26-year-old celebrated in style.

The Band Baaja Baaraat actress was seen during India’s tour of England and Kohli’s poor performance during the series was blamed on her presence.
