Indian cricket fans are always curious to know about the off field moments of their favorite stars. One such story recently came to light when Indian young women cricket sensation Jemimah Rodrigues shared an interesting memory involving cricket legend Virat Kohli, Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma and her teammate Smriti Mandhana.
In an interview with Mashable India, Jemimah opened up about a memorable outing in New Zealand during Indians 2022 tour. She recalled how she and Smriti Mandhana were curious to learn batting secrets from Virat Kohli. With this thought in mind the two decided to approach him for advice. To their surprise, Kohli warmly welcomed the idea and invited them for a coffee meeting.
What started as a casual discussion soon turned into hours of engaging conversation. Jemimah described the moment as a “cherishing and lively experience” where both young cricketers got a chance to interact with Kohli and Anushka Sharma, who also joined them at the cafe. The group spent long hours talking about cricket, life, and experiences in international sport.
However, the meeting became so engrossing that the players did not realize how much time had passed. Eventually the cafe staff had to politely step in and request them to leave as their table had been occupied for too long. Jemimah narrated the incident with laughter while adding that it was one of the most unforgettable evenings of her career.
This light hearted story reflects the approachable nature of Virat Kohli who is always ready to guide the next generation of Indian cricketers. For Jemimah Rodrigues and Smriti Mandhana, the meeting was not just about batting tips but also about building confidence and learning from one of the greatest icons of the game.This story was about the virat kohli who was kicked out of new Zealand cafe
