  • India has refused to play under lights at Adelaide.

    Of late, there has been speculation that India skipper Virat Kohli will be tying the knot soon with Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma.

    The 29-year-old has been granted a break from the limited-overs matches against Sri Lanka and social media has been abuzz with rumours of an impending marriage for the Indian cricketing superstar.

    Adelaide Oval, the picturesque and historic venue in Australia was recently host to the second Ashes Test which hosts Australia won to take a 2-0 lead in the series.

    Not content with hosting the first-ever day-night Ashes Test, the venue now wants to host Kohli’s marriage in case the Indian skipper does decide to take the plunge.

    In an interview with the Hindustan Times, Adelaide Oval CEO Andrew Daniels extended an invitation to the celebrity couple, offering its world class facilities for their marriage ceremony.

    “We would be thrilled to host Virat and Anushka’s wedding at Adelaide Oval. How fantastic would it be for Virat to create more happy memories here, considering his outstanding playing history at the Oval,” Daniels had said.

    Kohli has scored three Test tons in four innings at the Adelaide Oval.

    “With 26 purpose-built function spaces to choose from, combined with a showcase of South Australia’s finest food and wine it would be an unforgettable day for the future Mr and Mrs Kohli and their guests,” he added.

    Kohli and the Adelaide Oval have a special relationship with the Indian batsman having scored more Test tons at the ground than any other venue in the sport.

    In just four innings at the venue, Kohli has registered three of his 20 Test hundreds at a staggering average of 98.50! He has also notched an ODI ton at the same venue, making it a special ground for him personally.

    It remains to be seem if there are any legs to the rumours about Kohli’s impending marriage but should the star cricketer ever decide to take the step, the Adelaide Oval sure would make a fitting venue.
