India’s modern-day great, Virat Kohli, during the IPL 2025 season, temporary suspension for a week due to cross-border tensions between India and Pakistan, announced his retirement from Test format. However, Kohli, who is the most-followed public figure of India, with an Instagram following of 274 million, has been a private person, has chosen a quieter life during this phase of his career. In recent few years, he has become a person to have a relatively low profile on social media accounts. Meanwhile, fans have been wondering what Virat is doing right now.

What is Virat Kohli doing right now?

Currently, Kohli is residing in Notting Hill, London, alongside his wife Anushka Sharma and their two children, Vamika and Akaay. A report by The Telegraph revealed that Kohli enjoys his life in London and is often spotted shopping, visiting cafes, and taking the Tube like any regular person. The couple, who have consistently requested privacy for their children, continue to keep Vamika and Akaay away from the public eye and social media.

Notably, ahead of the five-match Test series against England, the Delhi-born hosted a private dinner at his London residence. The attendees of the dinner included Shubman Gill, now India’s Test captain, Rishabh Pant, Mohammed Siraj, and a few other Indian team members.

Virat Kohli finally lifts IPL title with RCB

The recently concluded IPL 2025 was a high moment for Virat Kohli. After 18 long seasons, he finally lifted the IPL trophy as Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) clinched the title. Kohli scored 657 runs in the season with eight fifties, playing an important role in RCB’s victorious campaign. In the Finals against the Punjab Kings, he was the top scorer of his side with 43 runs. Following the win, the 36-year-old broke down and was elated by the victory.

“This team made the dream possible, a season I’ll never forget. We’ve thoroughly enjoyed the ride over the last 2.5 months. This one is for the fans of RCB who never ever left our side in the worst of times. This one is for all the years of heartbreak and disappointment. This is for every inch of effort left on the field playing for this team. As far as the IPL trophy is concerned – you’ve made me wait 18 years to be able to lift you and celebrate my friend, but it’s been absolutely worth the wait,” Kohli wrote on Instagram.

When will Virat Kohli play next for India?

While Kohli has retired from Tests and T20Is, the latter after the 2024 T20 World Cup, he is expected to return to international cricket in August for India’s ODI tour of Bangladesh, starting on August 17. Apart from the Bangladesh tour, India is scheduled to face Australia, South Africa, and the West Indies later in the year.
