Indian batting ace Virat Kohli announced his retirement from T20I cricket after India won the ICC T20I World Cup 2024 defeating South Africa by seven runs at Barbados. Virat Kohli, who won the Player of the Tournament award for his 59-ball 76, said he just finished playing his last T20 World Cup and achieved exactly what the team wanted to.
During the post-match presentation, Kohli said he feels that it is time for the next generation of Indian cricketers to take over. The announcement of the final being his last T20 game was an open secret, the 35-year-old said, adding that he would have announced it even if India had lost the final.
