Avneet Kaur: In a classic Wimbledon match this week, Novak Djokovic defeated Australia’s Alex de Minaur to storm into the quarter-finals — but it wasn’t just the game that drew attention. Among the spectators were Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma, captured on camera looking visibly serious during the intense showdown.
Social media erupted not only over the couple’s expressions but also because Avneet Kaur happened to be at the exact same match.
Virat Kohli’s Instagram Post Gets Fans Talking
Shortly after the match, Kohli shared a sleek shot of Djokovic mid-serve on Instagram with the caption:

“What a match. It was business as usual for the gladiator.”
This post confirmed his attendance at the match and sent fans into a frenzy — especially once eagle-eyed netizens noticed Avneet Kaur’s social updates.
Avneet Kaur’s Wimbledon Appearance Adds to Buzz
Actress Avneet Kaur, who’s been making headlines for her global appearances and fashion choices, also posted several stories from the same Djokovic-De Minaur match. One of her captions read:
“The energy here is unreal. #Wimbledon2025 💚”
And just like that, the internet detectives got to work.
The Backstory: Virat’s Accidental Instagram ‘Like’
This coincidence wouldn’t have drawn so much attention if not for a viral Instagram controversy in May 2025.

Back then, Virat Kohli was criticised for liking and then quickly unliking a photo of Avneet Kaur in a green crop top and printed wrap skirt. The incident sparked wild speculation online, prompting Kohli to respond:
“While clearing my feed, it appears the algorithm may have mistakenly registered an interaction. There was absolutely no intent behind it. I request that no unnecessary assumptions be made.”
Despite the clarification, social media had already made up its mind — and now, this Wimbledon crossover has reignited that spark.
Social Media Reacts: “That’s Why Virat…”
As soon as the pictures went viral, X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram were flooded with cheeky comments like:
- “That’s why Virat was looking stressed!”
- “Coincidence or cricket-gossip karma?”
- “Anushka checking her phone, Virat looking grim — and Avneet just vibing.”
The online reaction has been a mix of humour, curiosity, and classic Bollywood-cricket crossover memes.
Whether it was a pure coincidence or just a celebrity-packed sporting event, the fact that Virat Kohli, Anushka Sharma, and Avneet Kaur all attended the same match has given social media enough content to chew on for days.
