Kohli joined the team in practicing ahead of the ODI at Pune's MCA stadium, but also took some time out to meet a new pal. His beau Anushka Sharma though has n reason to feel jealous since it's a sniffer dog named Prince.

The India captain is a dog lover and has time and again been seen with his canine friends -- especially 'Bruno' -- on his social media accounts.
Kohli has had a long association with dogs, his first pet was a white Pomeranian, then came a golden Labrador call 'Rico' and he now has 'Bruno', a Beagle, for company.
Anushka also has a pet dog, who is named Dude Sharma.
BCCI shared some pictures of Kohli meeting the golden retriever Prince on its official Twitter account with a caption – "When Skipper @imVkohli took some time off to meet Prince."
Indian fans also should celebrate this meeting since it could be a lucky charm. Remember the 28-year-old Delhi lad met and played with another police dog ahead of the Chennai Test vs England in December 2016. And India thrashed England in that Test at the Chepauk Stadium by an innings and 75 runs to register a 4-0 series win.

And superstitious cricketers and cricket lovers may take it that Kohli interacting with a dog ahead of any match should turn the game in India's favour.
At least that's what everyone's hoping for, anyway.
