However, the visiting team, under Virat’s leadership, won the third Test at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) by 137 runs.

The Delhi-born cricketer ended the year as the leading run-scorer in Test cricket, having scored 1322 runs at an average of 55.08. The right-handed batsman was also 2018’s leading ODI run scorer with 1202 runs at an average of 133.55.

Amidst some hectic cricketing schedule, Virat has also managed to spend some quality time with wife Anushka Sharma. Yesterday night, the world was engrossed in the happiness of New Year’s celebration. The power-couple spent the auspicious occasion in Sydney and Virat posted a couple of adorable pictures with his better-half, whose movie Zero came out in December.
