On Sunday, August 18, 2024, superstar batsman Virat Kohli of India marked a significant occasion by concluding his remarkable 16-year career in international cricket.
The path of the prolific batsman, crowned with a plethora of records and awards, is tribute to his everlasting dedication and great skill on the 22 yard field.
In an exclusive “Rapid Fire” interview with Star Sports on the momentous occasion, Kohli answered 16 brief questions.
In the lively conversation, Kohli disclosed his favorite IPL rival, deciding between the Mumbai Indians and the Kolkata Knight Riders.
It was surprising that the veteran batter chose Shahrukh Khan’s squad as his preferred opponent.
Kohli reacted with a cheeky smirk when asked which cricket player he preferred, MS Dhoni or AB de Villiers. He said, “both.”
Fans have the chance to discover more about Kohli’s tastes and viewpoints on a range of cricket-related and non-cricket-related subjects during the conversation.
On this day in 2008, just a few months after being named the Under-19 World Cup winning captain in Kuala Lumpur, Kohli made his debut in international cricket in India’s ODI match against Sri Lanka at Dambulla.
Kohli has won the ODI World Cup in 2011. the Champions Trophy in 2013 and the T20 World Cup in 2024, following which he retired from the shortest format. He also holds the record for most wins by an Indian Test captain, as the side won 40 out of 68 matches when Kohli was the skipper.
