Indian batting icon Virat Kohli turned 36 on Tuesday when his wife Anushka Sharma decided to post an unseen image of the cricketer to wish him a special day.

In the image, a smiling Kohli could be seen carrying his two children in his arms.

In the caption section, Sharma wrote an evil eye and a heart emoji to share her emotions.

Virat Kohli had a poor run on the cricket field in recent times when India suffered a 3-0 loss in the Test series against New Zealand.

Kohli shined with the willow and remained in the limelight ever since India clinched the Under-19 World Cup in 2008.

He slowly grew his position and became one of the shining stars in Indian cricket.

Anushka and Virat tied the knot in 2017.

They have two children Vamika and Akaay.
