Why was Virat Kohli's daughter Vamika concerned when India won the T20 World Cup? Anushka Sharma Reveals

India's T20 World Cup victory is being celebrated by the entire Indian fraternity, but amid this, Indian players had someone to think about them as they were crying like a baby after their victory.

A kid always lights up the people around them. The innocent mind of the child always brings about joy and it fascinates a mature mind in many unexplored and unexplained ways. But sometimes, the way they think humanizes a grown-up and somehow teaches one to appreciate or value the deepest emotions of mankind with a bit more care.

Rohit

As Rohit Sharma and his men hoisted the tricolour in Barbados, emotions were running faster than the Vande Bharat Express. Rohit Sharma was tapping the ground in joy, Hardik Pandya was crying inconsolably like a baby as if a huge weight was just lifted, Virat Kohli was almost in tears, Jasprit Bumrah with his hands around his eyes - that was some scene to watch and surely many would have had tears rolling down their eyes.

And as those grown-ups were succumbing to emotion and showing their human side, little Vamika, Virat Kohli's eldest, was concerned about them. She was so much concerned that she asked her mother if there was anyone to give a hug to those men in Blue on the ground.

"Our daughter's biggest concern was if all the players had someone to hug them after she saw them cry on tv..... Yes, My darling, they were hugged by 1.5 billion people," Virat Kohli's wife Anushka Sharma shared on social media. She also congratulated the Indian team for their magnificent achievement.

It was a moment of redemption for Virat Kohli as well. The bating stalwart endured a traumatic T20 World Cup campaign but shone in the final and batted brilliantly. Kohli scored 76 runs with the bat and was also bestowed with the Player of the Match award.

But irony to Vamika's concerns, it is the two biggest stars of Indian cricket who may have induced tears in millions of their fans. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, after their conjugated triumph, announced retirement from the T20I format.
