Virat wanted to party with me - Sofia Hayat

Serious partying is now a part of a cricketer's life. And Virat Kohli is no stranger to the party circuit. While the dashing cricketer has made an impression on the pitch, off it he's been scoring maidens. Amid a busy season, Virat was recently spotted partying with British actor-model Sofia Hayat at the London nightclub Merah, a celebrity hangout.

And Sofia claims that the 24-year-old cricketer was interested in her. "I was in London shooting for a Hollywood film when Virat approached one of my friends and said that he wanted to party with me," says the model, a regular at the club.

When BT quizzed Virat, who was in Bangalore recently, about whether he did party with Sofia, he quipped, "You should ask her." But when told that BT had already spoken to Sofia, Virat was more keen to know about what she had to say rather than comment on the issue.

Virat, who is often under the media glare for his hard partying ways, maintains he is single. "I don't have anybody in my life," says Virat, putting to rest rumours about a link-up with actor Sarah-Jane Dias. So how does he deal with the party boy image? "Well, we work hard, so there's no harm in enjoying a spot of fun," he says.

As for the upcoming one-day series against England, Virat says the team has no revenge strategy in place to win back lost ground. "There is no particular strategy. After all, it's not a battle. It's all about the score and we will just try to beat them in the series," says Virat. The cricketer, who is fast becoming a T20 specialist, adds that doing well in one-dayers and Test matches is the real test of a player. "T20 has become big and I am enjoying it, but you improve and learn only in the longer format matches," he says.
