Rohit Sharma-led Indian team suffered a notably embarrassing defeat in the recently concluded World Test Championship 2023 Final. India squared off against Australia in the all-important WTC final at London’s Kennington Oval in the second week of June. Pat Cummins and Co. dominated a major chunk of the game, ultimately clinching a massive 209-run triumph. Due to substandard performance, India’s decade-long wait for an ICC title continued.
After substantial competitive action, the Indian players are currently on a well-deserved break. Team India will now directly mark its presence on the cricket field during the approaching Carribean tour. India will face West Indies in an away tour – comprising a two-match test series and a five-match T20 International series. The mega assignment will formally commence on July 12 with the red-ball series.

Virat Kohli Spotted in Krishna Das’ London Kirtan
Meanwhile, a visual of Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma attending a Kirtan by Krishna Das in London has recently gone viral on social media. Virat & Anushka allegedly attended the Kirtan before they left for Mumbai following the WTC final in London. Krishna Das – a famous American vocalist – is known for his Hindu devotional music, known as Kirtans. Moreover, fans found Virat’s presence in the Kirtan quite amusing.

“Playing two finals is honestly a good achievement for us. But we’d like to go a mile ahead as well. Great effort from the entire unit. Unfortunately that we couldn’t go on and win the final but we’ll keep our heads high and fight.” said Indian captain Rohit Sharma after the WTC final

Virat Kohli had a below-par outing in the World Test Championship Finale with the bat. Kohli managed to contribute with just 14 and 49 runs in two innings respectively. Virat Kohli underfiring with the bat remained one of the major factors behind Team India’s gigantic loss. The middle-order batter further appeared overly distressed in the post-match visuals following India’s heartbreaking defeat at The Oval.
