Even though the newly-wedded couple — Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma and Indian skipper Virat Kohli — are no longer together in South Africa, as Anushka left the Rainbow Nation a few weeks ago due to her professional commitments; yet the fans of Virushka (as Anushka and Virat are fondly called) managed to bring the duo together at the Centurion during the second ODI.
A photo of Virat and Anushka is getting viral on the internet in which Virat Kohli can be seen fielding near the boundary and a fan is holding the photograph of Anushka Sharma from their wedding in Italy.

A Twitter user named Crickspot share the photograph on the micro-blogging site and wrote, ” Bhaiyya bhabhi together in stadium during 2nd ODI @anushkasharma @virat.kohli.”
Virat and Anushka tied the knot in a secret marriage on 11 December in Tuscany, Italy. After their secret wedding, the duo hosted two receptions – one in Delhi and the other in Mumbai.
Earlier on Sunday, after winning the toss Virat Kohli invited the South African team to bat first and with the help of Yuzvendra Chahal’s fifer bundled out South Africa for 118 runs.
Batting first, the South African batsmen failed to find a firm ground as their wickets fell on regular intervals. From South African camp, JP Duminy (25) and Khaya Zondo (25) were the top scorers.
Indian bowlers capitalised the situation, as Yuzvendra Chahal took five wickets for 22, while Kuldeep Yadav bagged 3 for 20. Bhuvneshwar Kumar (1/19) and Jasprit Bumrah (1/12) were the other wicket-takers.
India have taken the lead of 1-0 in the series.
