India cricketers like Virat Kohli, Suresh Raina, Shikhar Dhawan, and Virender Sehwag posted heartwarming messages on the occasion of Father's Day on Twitter.

Kohli, in his tweet, wrote that the feeling of being a father is wonderful. The India captain was blessed with a baby girl earlier this year in January. He also celebrated the memories with his father, who is no more. 

"Happy father's day to all the fathers all across the world. Of all the wonderful things that God has blessed me with, being a father is by far the greatest joy and blessing," he wrote.

"As I miss my old man this day, I also celebrate our memories together," he further added in his tweet. Kohli was playing for Delhi in a Ranji Trophy match when his father passed away back in 2006.
