'Golden duck' is all Virat Kohli can gift Anushka Sharma at Lords

In the five-Test series against England, Indian cricketer Virat Kohli has failed to live up to his formidable reputation so far.

Kohli failed with the bat in the first two innings of the opening Test - scoring 1 and 8.

The batsman has had a horrid start to his England tour with just 34 run from his four innings.

Looks like the he is in need of lady luck, though lady love Anushka Sharma is keeping him company in England.

The batsman was reportedly spotted with girlfriend Anushka outside Team India's hotel in London,

According to a source quoted by UK's Mirror, the two appeared casual as they stepped out of the team hotel on Wednesday.

"The two have been spending a lot of time together and look really happy in each other's company," said the source.

The happiness faded on the cricket field for Virat.

The actress, who flaunted a black-and-white ensemble, has been with the cricketer since then.

Anushka reached London after the first Test at Trent Bridge and was even seen cheering Kohli when he came out to bat on Day 1 at Lord's. He scored 25.

The batsman returned momentarily on Saturday but was bowled by Liam Plunkett for a golden duck. Looks like Kohli was in a hurry.

Anushka has taken time out from her hectic schedule to be with the batsman. The actress flew straight from Turkey where she has been shooting for Zoya Akhtar's 'Dil Dhadakne Do'.

In the past, Virat too has travelled to Sri Lanka and Jodhpur where the actress was shooting for her upcoming films. Anushka too she had travelled to New Zealand in past to spend time with the cricketer.

While Kohli's on-field innings may have failed to take off, off the pitch, he has been quite busy.
