England batswoman Danni Wyatt, who once proposed Virat Kohli for marriage, is set to use the bat gifted to her by Indian captain during her side's upcoming tour to India. England will play a tri-series in India, involving the hosts and Australia, later in March.

"I'm using Virat Kohli's bat now," Wyatt said as quoted by Cricinfo.

In 2014 when India toured England, Kohli gifted Wyatt a bat after watching her fandom for himself.

Wyatt had proposed Kohli for marriage, though she made a spelling mistake. She wrote on Twitter: "Kholi marry me!!!" 

Kohli, now married to Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma, then gifted own of his own bat to the batswoman. She shared the picture of the bat on social media but engrossed the misspelled name of Kohli once again.

Wyatt paid heavily for the mistake as fans trolled her for posting wrong spelling of Kohli's name.

"The bat I hit the century with broke not long ago. So now I'll be using Virat's," Wyatt explained.
