Anushka Sharma: Not a distraction for Virat Kohli

Anushka Sharma has showed displeasure over her being called a distraction after the Indian captain, Virat Kohli’s poor performance in England last summer.

She also defended her boyfriend as well as his teammates, suggesting that people should learn to treat the Indian cricketers as adults and should pay respect to their private lives.��”These guys (Indian cricketers) eat and breathe Cricket. Please treat them as adults,�۝ urged the ‘NH10’ actress.

She also questioned why people blame her for Kohli’s poor performances on field.��”Why I am responsible for Virat’s poor show on the ground?” quizzed Sharma, who had to face lots of flack following India’s run-machine’s poor show with the bat in England.

“It is primitive to call me a distraction for Virat,” Sharma told PTI.

Well, this is yet another bold talk from the couple who have been away from each other since the beginning of the ongoing ICC Cricket World Cup 2015.
