Team India captain Virat Kohli is enjoying quality time at home with no cricketing activities due to coronavirus outbreak. During the break, Kohli has been very active on social media platforms, where he post stuff regularly related to his life.
Kohli on Thursday posted a photo of himself where he is seen reading a book and enjoying his first Mumbai's monsoon.
"Great weather in Mumbai. Sitting out enjoying the beginning of my first proper experience of Mumbai monsoon. Couldn't be a better time to start reading something," Kohli wrote in the caption.
Kohli's Royal Challengers Bangalore teammate and good friend AB de Villiers dropped a comment on the post and called him "sophisticated".
