Ind vs Aus: Hockley Not Surprised By Virat Kohli's Decision Of Skipping Last Three Tests

By IANS News November 10, 2020 • 16:06 PM View: 1234

Cricket Australia chief executive Nick Hockley is not surprised by Virat Kohli's decision to withdraw from the last three Tests of the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy as the Indian skipper prepares for fatherhood in January.

Kohli's wife, actor Anushka Sharma, is due for delivery in January and the batting mainstay had asked for leave from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). And on Monday, the BCCI announced that Kohli has been granted paternity leave and that he will return to India after the conclusion of the first Test between the two sides.
