Virat dedicates win to Anushka
After winning the match, Virat thanked his wife Anushka Sharma for playing a crucial role in his life. Speaking to broadcasters Star Sports, Virat said that Anushka, who was raised in Bengaluru, has been ‘supporting RCB since 2014’.
Virat said, “It’s been 11 years for her as well, you know. Relentlessly coming to games, watching tough games, watching us just miss out. What your life partner does for you to be able to play, and the sacrifices, and the commitment, and just backing you through thick and thin, is something you can’t explain in words. Only when you play professionally, you understand the amount of things that go on behind the scenes, and what they go through as well.”
“What Anushka has gone through emotionally, watching me, being down and out, her coming to games, being so connected with Bangalore, she’s a Bangalore girl as well, and being connected to RCB, this is very, very special for her as well, and she’s going to be so, so proud,” added Virat.
