<p>It is indeed quite an auspicious day in the cricket world as Kohli's little one shares her birthday with none other than India's legendary batsman - Rahul Dravid. It would be interesting to see how Dravid reacts to this happy coincidence.</p>
<p>On the work front, Virat Kohli led Team India in the first of the four-match Test series on December 17, 2020 at Adelaide, where the visitor lost by 8 wickets. After Kohli took a paternity leave to be with wife Anushka Sharma, Ajinkya Rahane took over the captaincy for the rest of the Test series.</p>
