Kohli requests media to refrain from publishing daughter Vamika's pictures

Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma have repeatedly asked media not to publish pictures of the toddler, who turned 1 earlier this month

Star India batter Virat Kohli on January 24 requested the media to abstain from publishing his daughter Vamika's pictures, saying images of the infant shown by broadcasters during the third ODI against South Africa here was a case of being "taken off guard".

Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma have repeatedly asked media not to publish pictures of the toddler, who turned 1 earlier this month.

However, during the third ODI on Sunday when Kohli scored a half century, the cameras panned towards Sharma, who was holding her daughter as the two celebrated the knock.
