"description": "<p>Daring, tough, and fiercely talented, Virat Kohli is arguably one of the finest batters that India has produced. He has even drawn comparisons with the great Sachin Tendulkar. With a firm bottom-hand grip and the ability to smash balls landing on a particular area to any part of the ground at will and without much risk, Kohli has carved a niche of his own in Indian cricket. The king of chases, as many of his fans have christened him, Kohli is a deeply hammered nail across all formats.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>Kohli rose to fame when he captained India's victorious Under-19 World Cup side in Malaysia in 2008. He was immediately propelled into the lucrative Twenty20 tournament - the Indian Premier League in 2008. Devoid of noteworthy performances in the first edition for Bengaluru, his domestic form still won him an India ODI cap on the tour to Sri Lanka in the same year.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>The Delhi batter was initially deployed at various positions in the batting lineup, from replacing Virender Sehwag as an opener to accelerating in the middle order. Kohli has always believed in backing his confidence, and with the assurance evident in his shot selection and footwork, he was rarely found wanting with his technique even on bowling-friendly surfaces abroad. Once Kohli matured, especially in the ODIs, lean patches made way for eyeball-grabbing consistency.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>The right-hander had a marvellous run in 2010 during which he amassed close to 1000 runs. He did not let his guard down in 2011 by scoring a century in his maiden World Cup match against Bangladesh and contributed decently right throughout the tournament. The wait for a Test cap ended when he was selected for the tour of the West Indies in 2011. The strongest evidence of his mettle came early in 2012 during his maiden ton in whites on India's tour to Australia; he put in an intrepid batting display while the others failed. His efforts paid off, and Kohli was soon handed over the vice-captaincy of the Indian team ahead of the Asia Cup in 2012. He ended the tournament as the highest run-getter, which included a whirlwind 183 off 148 balls against Pakistan.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>Kohli captained the Indian ODI team for the first time against Sri Lanka in a Triangular ODI series in the Caribbean after an injury ruled MS Dhoni out for three ODIs. He then tasted the success of full-fledged captaincy in Zimbabwe, where he marshalled the team in the absence of Dhoni, who was rested, and achieved a 5-0 clean sweep over the hosts. He added another feather to his cap in 2013 when he raced his way to an ODI century off just 52 balls against Australia, helping India chase down a daunting target of 360.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>In the following year, Kohli single-handedly took India to the finals of the ICC WT20 in Bangladesh, but they lost against Sri Lanka at the last hurdle. The next few months would prove to be a massive learning curve for Kohli, who was found wanting in the swinging conditions of England. James Anderson was his tormentor as he exposed a distinct weakness outside Kohli’s off stump. He was embarrassed but continued to remain a part of the Test side. In the five-match ODI series against Sri Lanka in November 2014, Kohli led India to a 5-0 rout of the Lankans.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>In December 2014, Kohli was made the captain of the Test side for India’s first Test against Australia in Adelaide but lost despite scoring centuries in both innings. On 30th December 2014, having saved the third Test for India against Australia at the MCG, Indian captain MS Dhoni announced his retirement from Tests with immediate effect, citing too much strain as the reason, handing over the mantle to Virat Kohli for the fourth and final Test match. Kohli scored fantastically on the Australian tour, thereby squashing doubts about his class and technique to last in the longest version.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>The year 2016 turned out to be Kohli’s best phase by some distance as he plundered runs across formats with his consistency reaching insane levels. He amassed over 2500 international runs at a mind-boggling average of 86.50 with seven centuries and 13 half-centuries from 40 innings. This included a ‘Man of the Tournament’ award in the 2016 World T20, where India made the semi-finals.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>In addition to this, he also racked up 973 runs in the Indian Premier League with an incredible four centuries to his name. During the 2016-17 season, Kohli also became the first batter to register a double century in four successive Test series, going past the legendary Sir Donald Bradman and Rahul Dravid, both of whom had managed it for three consecutive series. His exploits showed the world that he can dominate in all formats simultaneously without breaking a sweat.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>After a dreamy 2016-17 season, Virat carried his form to the tour of South Africa in the early part of 2018. Though India lost the series 2-1, his 153 in the second Test at Centurion proved his potential once again in alien conditions. He even took his side to series wins in the limited-overs format, which was a first for India in South Africa. It has not been all personal feats, though; the national team came leaps and bounds under his captaincy. They created history in early 2019 by becoming the first-ever Indian side to register a Test series win over Australia in Australia.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>Virat rather had a modest 2019 World Cup outing as a batter; he scored 5 consecutive half-centuries, but it came as a big surprise that a batter of his stature didn't convert any into a hundred. Though under his leadership, India finished at the top of the points table in the group stages of the tournament, their campaign ultimately ended after a close defeat against New Zealand in the semi-final.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>In June 2021, India lost the 2021 ICC World Test Championship Final to New Zealand. This was Kohli's third defeat as captain in knockouts and finals of ICC tournaments. In September 2021, Kohli announced that he would step down from captaincy in T20Is following the 2021 ICC Men's T20 World Cup. In December 2021, Kohli was replaced by Rohit Sharma as India's ODI captain, and soon after that, Kohli stepped down as India's Test captain as well, following the 2-1 Test series defeat during the tour of South Africa. He relinquished the captaincy of Bengaluru too after the 2021 Indian Premier League.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>The following year, in 2022, Virat was picked in the team for the T20 World Cup in Australia. India bowed out in the semi-finals, but Kohli played a historical knock against arch-rivals Pakistan in a group stage game at the MCG in Melbourne and hit one of the most iconic sixes the MCG crowd had ever seen live when he hit Haris Rauf straight down the ground and eventually went on to win the game for India in remarkable fashion.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>Virat's resurgence in form continued in the year 2023, but heading into the ODI World Cup on home soil, there were still many unanswered questions. Kohli silenced every single critic with a match-winning fifty against Australia in the first game. From there on, he went on a record-breaking spree and ended the tournament with 6 half-centuries and 3 centuries in 11 matches, amassing 765 runs in total. He also became the first player to score 50 tons in ODI cricket and also became the first player ever to surpass fifty-plus scores in five consecutive games twice after achieving the same in the 2019 edition of the tournament. Virat yet again scored a half-century against Australia in the final and picked up the Player of the Tournament but was left teary-eyed as India lost the final in Ahmedabad in front of 120,000-plus spectators.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>Virat's 2024 season began with a few ups and downs in the Test series against South Africa away from home and then against England at home, and he missed a few of those games as well due to family reasons. In the 2024 Indian Premier League, though, Bengaluru had a disastrous start, and Kohli was once again under the scanner for his orthodox approach inside the Powerplay and his mediocre strike rate, but he hit back hard and finished as the leading run-scorer with 741 runs in 15 innings and finished with a strike rate of 154.69. His resurgent form was the main reason that Bengaluru, against all odds, managed to reach the playoff stages of the competition.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>Kohli's stellar showing in the Indian Premier League was enough reason for him to be picked in the Indian squad for the 2024 T20 World Cup in the USA and West Indies. He was pushed up the order to open alongside skipper Rohit Sharma but had a very slim campaign and only managed to surpass 30-plus in one game leading up to the final where India went up against South Africa in Barbados. Kohli stepped up his game and steadied the ship for his side after they were pegged back to 34/3 and went on to score a fine 76 off 59 balls that helped his side put on a solid total on the board.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>After an engrossing final, India did manage to clinch their second T20 World Cup, their first since the inaugural World T20 way back in 2007, and Kohli was adjudged as the Player of the Match in the Final. With that win, Kohli completed white-ball cricket, as he has won the Under-19 World Cup, the ODI World Cup, the ICC Champions Trophy, and now the T20 World Cup as well. During his speech, while receiving the Player of the Match accolade, Kohli announced that it was his final T20 World Cup and that he would be retiring from T20I cricket effective immediately, drawing the curtain on an illustrious career.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>Following the T20 World Cup, Kohli endured testing times, first against spin at home during the New Zealand series and then Down Under. His issues outside the off-stump re-emerged during the 2024-25 Border Gavaskar Trophy, and it became a recurring pattern for Kohli, who was dismissed in the same manner multiple times.</p>\r\n<br />\r\n<p>A setback followed by success for Kohli at the 2025 Champions Trophy. Matches against Pakistan always seem to ignite his best, and his brilliant century powered India to victory in their group-stage encounter. He then delivered another Man-of-the-Match performance in a high-stakes semi-final against Australia. With 218 runs in five innings, Kohli finished as India's second-highest run-scorer, playing a pivotal role in their triumph as India secured back-to-back white-ball titles.</p>",
