Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli are on cloud nine since the arrival of their daughter whom they have named Vamika. They welcomed their baby girl on January 11. Recently, at a pre-match press conference on the eve of the first Test against England, Virat said he didn't miss any action from India's tour of Australia despite other commitments. The Indian cricket team captain said that becoming a father will remain the greatest moment of his life and it can't be compared to winning a match.
"Becoming a father has been and will remain the greatest moment of my life. That is something that has to be experienced to understand what I am saying. The connection with the team doesn’t go away in any situation, especially when you have given everything for the team, especially for the Test team for the last six years on a daily basis. Being motivated to take Test cricket on top, take Indian cricket on top and the whole group has put in so much effort," Virat told.

Sharing Vamika's first picture, Anushka, on Instagram, wrote, "We have lived together with love , presence and gratitude as a way of life but this little one , Vamika has taken it to a whole new level ! Tears , laughter , worry , bliss - emotions that have been experienced in a span of minutes sometimes ! Sleep is elusive but our hearts are SO full Thanking you all for your wishes , prayers and good energy "
In August 2020, Anushka and Virat announced that they are expecting their first child. After Vamika's birth, the couple requested the paparazzi to not carry content featuring her.
