Virat Kohli, Anushka Sharma Welcome 2023 With These Special Pictures
As the year reached to its conclusion on Saturday, the right-handed batter merrily celebrated the day to welcome 2023
India star batter Virat Kohli had a memorable run in 2022. The former India skipper, who was going through a lean patch, ended his 1020-day old century drought by smashing his maiden T20I ton against Afghanistan in the Asia Cup 2022. He also ended his ODI century drought, with a scintillating knock in the third ODI against Bangladesh earlier this month. Since then, Kohli did not look back and ended the year as the tenth highest run-scorer of 2022 with a total of 1348 runs. As the year reached to its conclusion on Saturday, the right-handed batter merrily celebrated the day to welcome 2023. Â
Kohli took to Instagram and posted some pictures with his wife and Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma and wrote "2023" with a heart.
Apart from Kohli, legendary Indian cricketer Sachin Tendulkar took to Twitter to wish fans a very happy new year while sharing a video of him tapping the ball repeatedly with his bat.
"Knock knock... who's there? It's 2023! #HappyNewYear," tweeted Tendulkar.
Knock knock... who's there?
