Anushka Sharma Has A Special Message On AB De Villiers’ Retirement

Anushka Sharma is a cricket fan and why not? After all hubby Virat Kohli eats, drinks and breathes cricket. Yesterday, as South African batsman, AB de Villiers announced his retirement from International cricket; Twitter went all out to express their emotions. Among the cricketer’s million fans, Anushka Sharma too took to Twitter, to write a heartfelt message for AB de Villiers, who was a part of Virat Kohli’s IPL team, Royal Challengers Bangalore. She wrote, “In life, what we do to positively impact the lives of others has greater meaning than what we accomplish for ourselves. You’ve managed to do both beautifully & always with such grace & integrity. Wishing you & Danielle a blessed, happy life ahead@ABdeVilliers17 @DanielleDV27”

Well, we can’t agree more to Anushka. De Villiers, who is no less than a superstar in the world of Cricket, boasts an International career comprising of 114 Tests, 228 ODIs and 78 Twenty20 and a scored board of over 20,014 runs. The 34-year-old is South Africa's fourth most successful Test batsman with 8765 runs.

Talking about Virat and Anuhska, a few minutes back, we told you how the cricketer too has joined the cause#HumFitToIndiaFit- an initiative started by Union Minister, Rathore to encourage fitness in the country. Kohli posted a workout video in which he is seen sharing his favourite exercise and appealing India to stay fit. Virat passed on the challenge to wife Anushka Sharma, PM Narendra Modi and MS Dhoni.

Here’s what he wrote, “I have accepted the #FitnessChallenge by @ra_THORe sir. Now I would like to challenge my wife@AnushkaSharma , our PM @narendramodi ji and @msdhoni Bhai for the same. #HumFitTohIndiaFit #ComeOutAndPlay”

To talk of De Villiers’ retirement, well, fans will surely miss a great player on the field.
