"With abundant happiness and our hearts full of love, we are pleased to inform everyone that on 15th February, we welcomed our baby boy Akaay & Vaamika's little brother into this world! (sic)," stated the note shared by Kohli.

Notably, Kohli has given a skip to the ongoing Test series against England, which led to the speculations that he and Anushka were expecting their second child.

Earlier this month, former South African captain AB De Villiers suggested that Kohli and Anushka were expecting a second child, but soon retracted his remarks.
