Kohli, Anushka land together in Mumbai as Indian team arrives home in batches

Star Indian batsman Virat Kohli and his actress girlfriend Anushka Sharma, who was the target of a vicious social media attack after India’s World Cup ouster, arrived here today, while skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni landed in Delhi.

Kohli and Anushka walked hand in hand amid a sea of media at the Mumbai International Airport. The batsman made just one run in the lost semifinal against Australia and Anushka, who was in the stands during the game, was blamed for his poor show by some fans in social media platforms such as Twitter.

Elsewhere, Dhoni landed in Delhi, while five other players besides Team Director Ravi Shastri, touched down at the Mumbai International Airport.

Rohit Sharma, Ajinkya Rahane, Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel also returned to Mumbai from Australia after India’s semi-final loss in the cricket’s showpiece event on March 26, the sources said.

“By tonight all others, who have remained behind, would be back in India,” they informed.
