The world has lost connection in the real-world because of Coronavirus pandemic and the only way to connect is technology. We have seen cricketers active on social media and using it to interact with their buddies living miles away from them. Instagram live is very popular among the celebs currently.
India captain Virat Kohli had also come live with Kevin Pietersen and AB de Villiers on Instagram. He is spending time with his wife Anushka Sharma in lockdown.

Appearing in Star Sports' show, Cricket Connected, Kohli said, "This is the longest time we have spent with each other since we have known each other. When I am on tour, I go see her. There is some or the other thing happening. one person is going to work. But this is the time when both of us have been together. We never thought we would get a time like this to spend every day with each other. It is so nice to know that there is a silver lining in every situation in life."
Virat wants to see Indian pacers coming live together on Instagram. He feels the live interaction can show the true colors of a person.
Talking about his teammates coming live on social media, Kohli said, "You can ask anyone to come live at any time and then see how their true colors can be seen. Yuzvendra Chahal has been the biggest joker for me in this lockdown. Jasprit (Bumrah) has been a revelation, I did not he can such detailed conversation in public."
"I want to see, Ishant Sharma, Umesh Yadav, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Shami coming together, and having a conversation. I have seen what do they talk about when they come together. I want to see how much control do they have on themselves and their characters come out."
The 31-year-old is trying to utilize the time lockdown as given. He is learning new things.
"I had tried to learn the guitar a few times. I also baked a cake on Anushka's birthday and it turned out to be good. So I think I can cook well and I have an idea of flavors. Also, I am quite interested in learning the guitar. But I think I have an inclination towards these two things."
