Kohli’s Oz tour ends with Federer meeting

Melbourne, January 19

After leading India to two historic series victories Down Under, India skipper Virat Kohli wrapped up his Australian summer in style by meeting legendary tennis star Roger Federer at the Rod Laver Arena today.

Kohli, who donned the spectator’s hat alongside wife Anushka Sharma, watched defending champion Novak Djokovic beat Denis Shapovalov, and Serena Williams get past Dayana Yastremska. 

Kohli took to social media to post a picture of Federer with himself and Anushka. “What a day at the Australian open.  An amazing way to finish the Australian summer. Forever grateful #ausopen,” Kohli wrote. The official Twitter handle of the Australian Open also posted a picture of the trio, who were all smiles, captioning it as “three legends, one photo.”

Kohli on Friday led India to a 2-1 win over Australia in the ODI series. India also became the first country to return from Australia without losing a single series, having won the Test series 2-1 and drawn the T20I series 1-1.
