Watch: Windies keeper’s mother hugs Virat Kohli, gets emotional after meeting her favourite cricketer | Cricket News – Times of India

In a video that went viral on social media, Da Silva’s mother was seen hugging Kohli and getting emotional after meeting his favourite cricketer. The heartwarming incident took place a day after Da Silva was caught telling Kohli his mother is a huge fan of him.

“My mom called me and told me she’s coming to watch the match for Virat Kohli, I couldn’t believe it. I don’t blame her, to be honest. She’s right up there watching,” Joshua was heard saying to Kohli in a stump mic during the first day of the second Test.
Kohli on Friday also became the first batter to score a hundred in his 500th international match as he slammed his 29th Test century to end his five-year drought for a hundred in an overseas red-ball match.
Kohli’s flawless hundred took his tally of Test hundreds on par with Sir Donald Bradman, who had scored 29 centuries in 52 Tests.
After making four away hundreds in 2018 when India was on tour in Australia, Kohli had to wait quite a while and this century is his first outside India in Tests since then. His last overseas Test ton came in Perth in 2018.
