Katrina Kaif's newfound interest in cricket has convinced her to join Virat Kohli and play for Team India! She's so passionate about the game that she has actually requested Anushka Sharma to put in a word for her to Virat and convince him to get Kat on board! Nope, we ain't kidding. This actually happened and here's the full story... So, Katrina took to Instagram to share a video where she is seen playing cricket on the sets of Bharat. Just like Salman Khan did, a few days ago. From the looks of it, she seems quite a sport at cricket! The actress is seen hitting 'fours' and 'sixes' and we bet after watching this video, Virat wouldn't mind having Katrina play for Team India! Zero Movie Review: Katrina Kaif Gets Unanimous Praise from the Critics as She Delivers Her Best Performance Yet.

She captioned the video and tagged Anushka in it saying, "Pack up ke baad #bharat sets as the World Cup nears @anushkasharma perhaps u could put in a small word for me with the captain of the team. some room for improvement in my swing, but over all not a bad all rounder #apnatimeaayega." The video also has Apan Time Aayega playing in the background and we think it's just apt! Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt are going to be super proud of you having made the best use of their song from Gully BoyKatrina Kaif Looks BEAUTIFUL in a Saree as She Poses With Sunil Grover on Bharat Sets (View Pic).

Here's taking a look at the video-

While Anushka and Virat are yet to comment, Preity Zinta, the owner of IPL team Kings XI Punjab was quick to notice how good Katrina is at batting and instantly responded saying, "wow babe, we should hire you."
