BCCI shared the picture on their Twitter handle with the caption, "#TeamIndia members at the High Commission of India in London."
Team India captain Virat Kohli and actress Anushka Sharma are known to give each other a shoutout, whether it's Kohli kissing his engagement ring after a milestone or Sharma cheering from the stands. But this time the couple seems to have left fans upset.

The Indian team who are in England for a five-match Test series were hosted by the High Commission of India in London on Tuesday.

BCCI shared a picture from the meeting on Twitter with the caption, "#TeamIndia members at the High Commission of India in London."


However, along with Team India, Anushka Sharma was also spotted in the picture.The 'Pari' actress can be seen in the front row beside husband Kohli. And as many fans pointed out, vice-captain Ajinkya Rahane is in the last row.


The picture and tweet haven't gone down well with fans who have questioned Sharma's presence in the picture.

Twitterati also made the comparison to Dhoni, saying that Sakshi Dhoni never made it to Team pictures when he was captain.

Kohli and Sharma tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in Tuscany on December 11 last year, after dating for over four years.
