India’s carrom-baller, spin wizard Ashwin bids adieu to international cricket
India's decorated off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin announced his decision to retire from international cricket moments after the Brisbane Test ended in a draw.
A soft kiss planted on India skipper Virat Kohli’s hand by his actress wife Anushka Sharma at the Delhi and District Cricket Association (DDCA) event has taken the Internet by storm.
Notably, the two were present at the event where the Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium was renamed after former union minister and DDCA president Arun Jaitley. Meanwhile, a special stand was dedicated to Kohli.

“When I decided to name a stand in honour of Virat Kohli, I told this first to Arun Jaitley ji. He told me this is a good decision because there is no better player than Virat in world cricket,” Rajat Sharma said during the function.
Captain Kohli also walked down the memory lane to recall one of the anecdotes related to Delhi’s famous cricket venue.
“When I left home today, I told my family one anecdote…I remember getting a ticket to watch a game in 2001 at the stadium and asking for autographs from players… So today to have a pavilion in my name at the same stadium is surreal and a great honour,” said Kohli.
