Virat Kohli-Anushka Sharma Attend Krishna Das Kirtan in Mumbai After Loss vs New Zealand | WATCH

Hours after the loss against New Zealand in the first Test in Bengaluru, Virat Kohli was spotted at Krishna Das' Kirtan in Mumbai. Kohli took a flight straight to Mumbai on Sunday itself after the loss in M. Chinnaswamy in Bengaluru. Not long back, the couple had attended a similar event in London after Kohli had taken a break from international cricket following India's T20 World Cup title victory in June. It is unbelievable to see the way Kohli strikes a balance between the game and personal life. Over the past couple of years, Kohli has admitted how he has become a spiritual person and he also credits his wife Anushka for the change. Here is the clip of the two attending the kirtan. 

Meanwhile, Team India suffered its third loss in the ongoing World Test Championship 2023-25 cycle. After South Africa and England, it is the third SENA country- New Zealand- that has inflicted defeat on India. The massive batting collapse in the first innings left Team India with too much to salvage in Bengaluru. Nevertheless, the team stood up to the challenge in the 2nd innings but could only push the visitors to chase a meagre 107. New Zealand got to the total seamlessly with 8 wickets in hand and took a 1-0 lead in the three-match series.

How Can India Qualify For The WTC 2023-25 Final

Despite the loss, Team India has remained firm on top in the updated World Test Championship points table. However, the loss has somewhat distanced the WTC final spot from India. With seven games left in the cycle, Team India needs to pick a "W" in four of them at least and requires two draws too, in order to qualify for the final. A clean sweep over New Zealand would have taken the pressure off but it wasn't to be. In fact, India would now look to pick victories over New Zealand in the remaining two matches at any cost. The objective would be to cover as much ground as possible ahead of the daunting tour Downunder, where India will play Australia five Tests in the Border Gavaskar Trophy.
