On the eve of India’s final T20 World Cup group match against Zimbabwe, star batter Virat Kohli celebrated his 34th birthday in Melbourne. Kohli is in top form in the ongoing tournament. He has hit three undefeated fifties to date and is also the leading go-getter in the tournament with 220 runs to date. After celebrating his birthday with his teammates, Kohli also interacted with Indian journalists, who presented him with a cake, at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. The former India captain was all smiles as he cut the cake and thanked the journalists for their gesture.
“Aap logon ne pehle to Kabhi cake nahi bheja mujhe. But thank you for this nice gesture. By doing this at the MCG, an iconic stadium, and the whole media is here, so thank you,” Kohli said.
Kohli also expressed his desire to cut an even bigger pie on November 13, if India wins the T20 World Cup.
“I would have preferred to cut one cake,” he replied.
