De Villiers expressed support for Kohli's decision to skip the matches, commending him for prioritizing his family. He emphasized that Kohli shouldn't be judged for taking a break to be with his loved ones during this significant phase of his life.


De Villiers said in his YouTube show on Saturday, "All I know is he is fine. He is spending a bit of time with his family, that is the reason he is missing the first two Test matches. I am not going to confirm anything else. I cannot wait to see him back. He is fine, he is doing well," 

"Let me just see what he said. I just want to at least give you (fans) a little bit of love," he added.

So, are Anushka Sharma, Virat Kohli expecting their second child? AB de Villiers continued, "So I wrote to him 'Been wanting to check in with you (sic) for a while now biscuits. How are you?'. He said 'Just need to be with my family right now. I am doing well.'."Yes, his second child is on the way. Yes, it's family time and things are important to him. If you are not true and genuine to yourself, you lose track of what you are here for. I think most people's priority is family. You can't judge Virat for that. Yes, we miss him. But he has made absolutely the right decision," 

Kohli had asked for a break for the first two Tests citing personal reasons and BCCI urged fans and media to respect the former Indian skipper's privacy. 

Previous speculation about Anushka Sharma, Virat Kohli expecting their second child

A trusted source previously revealed, "Anushka is expecting her second baby. Like the last time, they will formally share the news with the world at a later stage." The couple already shares the joy of parenthood with their daughter, Vamika, who was born in January 2021.

Observers have noted that Anushka Sharma, who is 35 years old, has been conspicuously absent from public events and paparazzi sightings in Mumbai recently. This deliberate low profile seems to be an effort to avoid unnecessary speculation about her pregnancy. Additionally, it has been observed that Anushka isn't accompanying Virat Kohli on his cricket tours or attending his matches as she typically would.
