Bhubaneswar: India’s star cricketer Virat Kohli had to reportedly fly back to Mumbai from Guwahati because of a ‘personal emergency’ while the rest of the Indian squad arrived in Trivandrum for their second warm-up game against the Netherlands. Though the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) hasn’t given any confirmation if Kohli will miss the warm-up game, a report claims that the star batter will return in time for the Netherlands clash and join his teammates today.
“A source from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) confirmed that he went to Mumbai for personal reasons. Virat will rejoin the team soon,” Cricbuzz quoted a source as saying.
It isn’t yet known what the personal emergency is but the expectations are that Virat would be back with the team in time.
