Several celebrities have been spotted attending the ongoing Wimbledon Championships. The latest to join the list are actor-cricketer couple Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli. Dressed sharply in formals, the celebrity Indian couple was seen in the stands enjoying the match between Novak Djokovic and Australia’s Alex de Minaur.

Anushka and Virat at Wimbledon


Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli have a home in London and spend most of their time living there with their two kids. After securing the IPL title for Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), Virat has been in London to spend quality time with his family. Earlier, he had announced his retirement from Test cricket.



Virat and Anushka looked elegant in their formal attire as they attended the Wimbledon Championships. In fact, Virat also took to his Instagram Stories to congratulate Novak Djokovic on his win. “What a match. It was business as usual for the gladiator. @djokernole,” Kohli wrote.

About the Match

Former champion Novak Djokovic recovered from a shaky start to defeat Australia’s Alex de Minaur 1-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 on Monday, booking his place in the quarterfinals of Wimbledon 2025 for a remarkable 16th time. The seven-time champion was far from his best in the early exchanges but showed trademark resilience and composure to claw back control and move closer to a record-equalling eighth title at the All England Club.

De Minaur, who was forced to withdraw before facing Djokovic in the quarterfinals last year due to an injury, started strong in windy conditions on Centre Court. The World No. 11 broke Djokovic three times to dominate the opening set, while the 37-year-old Serb struggled to find rhythm and cope with the swirling gusts.

But as he’s done countless times in his career, Djokovic found a way back. At 4-5 down in the second set, he saved break points and held firm to level the match. That proved to be the turning point, as he tightened up his baseline game, reduced errors, and moved De Minaur side to side in classic fashion. He eventually sealed the victory after three hours and 18 minutes, rallying from 1-4 down in the fourth set.

With the win, Djokovic improved his Wimbledon match record to 101-11, trailing only Roger Federer’s 105 wins at the tournament. Federer, who watched from the Royal Box, even got a cheeky mention. “Sometimes, I wish I had a serve-and-volley game and a nice touch from the gentleman who is standing right there,” Djokovic joked, pointing to Federer.
