Virat Kohli is an Indian cricketer who is considered one of the best batsmen in the world. He made his international debut in 2008 and has since become a key player for the Indian cricket team.
Kohli has scored over 70 international centuries, making him one of the most prolific run-scorers in the history of the game. He has also captained the Indian team in all three formats of the game.
In August 2021, Kohli announced that he would be stepping down as the captain of the Indian T20 team after the upcoming T20 World Cup. This decision came as a surprise to many fans and cricket experts.
Kohli cited the heavy workload of captaining in all three formats of the game as the reason for his decision to step down as T20 captain. He expressed his desire to continue playing for the Indian team in the other formats.
Kohli has been a successful captain for India, leading the team to numerous victories in Test matches, One Day Internationals (ODIs), and T20 matches. Under his leadership, India achieved the number one ranking in Test cricket.
Kohli has also been a key player for the Indian Premier League (IPL) team Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). He has been the captain of the team since 2013 and has been instrumental in their success in the tournament.
Kohli is known for his aggressive and passionate style of play, as well as his ability to chase down big totals and score centuries under pressure. He is often compared to legendary cricketers like Sachin Tendulkar and Ricky Ponting.
Kohli has received numerous awards and accolades for his performances on the field, including the ICC Cricketer of the Year award and the ICC ODI Player of the Year award. He has also been named in the ICC World XI team multiple times.
Kohli is married to Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma, and the couple has a daughter named Vamika. He is known for his philanthropic work and has been involved in various charitable initiatives.
