But, the question now is - will Kohli be there to cheer for the side when they play in London. The Indian team would be in London for the third Test, will Kohli attend? 

Will Kohli Attend Lord's Test?

Of course, there is no confirmation over will Kohli attend the game or not. As per reports, Kohli is set to spend a quiet life in London. It is no secret that Kohli is a family man and loves to spend time with them. Even before he retired, his childhood coach Rajkumar Sharma had revealed the cricketer's plans. In all probability, Kohli will not be there as he has distanced himself from the game. But again, if he is there - it will be a huge source of motivation for Shubman Gill's troops. 

Kohli, who is in London, recently skipped both the World Test Championship final and the MCC's “World Cricket Connects” symposium.

In 123 Tests, he has amassed 9230 runs at an average of 46.85. This includes 30 centuries. He has a highest score of 254*.
