Virat Kohli had reportedly returned home for a "family emergency" prior to the start of the two-match Test series in South Africa. He had obtained prior authorization from the BCCI and team management to miss the intra-squad game, which was intended to get the Indian team ready for the conditions in South Africa. The former captain of India did indeed return to the team, and on Sunday he was spotted at the practice nets. A recent report, however, showed that Kohli had not, in fact, taken that break to visit London because of a family emergency.
