Reports: Virat Kohli and Shikhar Dhawan's wives engage in a tussle

India are currently playing the first of the two-match Test series against the Windies at Saurashtra Cricket Association in Rajkot. Prior to the series, the team management decided to incorporate a number of changes in the squad from the erstwhile Test series against England. Virat Kohli, who didn’t play the 2018 Asia Cup in the UAE returned to the team.

Shikhar Dhawan had an impressive time in the multi-nation event, but owing to his poor show on English soil, he was sidelined for the home Test series. During the tour, he got off to starts but was unable to convert them. Subsequently, he was greeted with brickbats and more importantly, many experts went on to question his credentials to play the longest format.

What’s the reason behind the feud

In the meantime, outside the cricket pitch, all is not between the spouse of Shikhar and Kohli. As per reports in Dainik Jagran, it has been learned that there has been uneasiness between Anushka Sharma and Ayesha Dhawan after the left-handed batsman was omitted from the team. The report also mentioned that Anushka has attended some team meetings as well.

Ayesha had said that she had not spoken on her family to Anushka and ever since they haven’t spoken to each other. Previously, a Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) official said that Ayesha and Anushka were good friends. The Indian captain had also arranged passes for both of them during the ODI at the iconic Lord’s Cricket Ground in London in July.

Dhawan was recently crowned as the Man of the Series as he became the leading run-scorer of the Asia Cup, scoring 342 runs along with a couple of centuries against Hong Kong in the Group stage and Pakistan in the Super 4 phase. Kohli was also the top run-getter in the Test series against England having scored 593 runs. He was also India’s Man of the Series.
