Mom came to see Virat Kohli not me, says West Indies wicketkeeper Joshua Da Silva

Former captain of Team India Virat Kohli surprised West Indies wicketkeeper Joshua Da Silva after smacking a historic ton in his 500th international appearance, and also meeting Da Silva’s mother, who happens to be a fan of the RCB star.

Later, Joshua revealed to Kohli that his mother is a huge fan of his and was en route to the venue only to watch him play. Joshua’s words were caught on the stump mic.

Joshua’s mother met Kohli near the Team India bus and hugged him, before breaking down in tears. Meanwhile, the Windies player took pictures of the moment. 

Reacting to the moment, Joshua revealed that Kohli made his mom’s ‘year probably’.

“My mum told me before they won, actually a few days before the Test match, that she wants to see Virat Kohli and not me. So, it’s kind of funny. I thought I have to tell about it,” said Joshua.

“So when he was on the bus, my mum said, ‘Look, there is Virat’. So I went and knocked on the window. He came out, met my mom and made her day, made her year probably,” he added.
