Virat Kohli Retirement from T20Is Cricket

The King of CricketVirat Kohli finally hung up his boots in the T20 format after that nail-biting final. Before the World Cup kicked off it was evident that this was going to be his last outing in Indian Jersey. Wearing a tri-color in such a celebratory way is no less than dream stuff for an Indian Cricketer.

Something he has endeavored throughout his consistent runs scored in World T20. He perhaps chose the perfect occasion and saved his best when it mattered the most.

BCCI joint secretary Devajit Saikia said this victory will take Indian cricket to new heights as two of the biggest start moving away from T20Is. He remains the sole player and emerged as the highest scorer in two different T20 World Cups. Also, he was named ICC Mens’ T20 Team of The Decade from 2011 to 2020.

Here is a testimony of his consistent run of form that earned him the tag of “King Kohli”. His superlative average in the shortest form of the game measures his classical approach to batting while maintaining a decent strike rate.
