Meanwhile, Virat Kohli opened up about his relationship with long-time teammate Rohit Sharma, saying there’s always been a strong trust between them, and that they’ve consistently backed each other to deliver match-winning performances for the team.
“I think it’s a very natural thing to take place when you play with someone for so long and you share so much of your insight of the game. Initially, you’re learning from each other; you’re kind of growing in your careers at probably the same time, and you share all kinds of queries and questions.
“So there’s a lot of back and forth that happens and also the fact that we worked very closely in terms of the leadership for the team. So there were always ideas discussed and more or less we would end up being on the same page in terms of what the gut feel of that particular situation or that particular game demands,” said Kohli in a video posted on RCB’s X account on Sunday.
Over the years, Kohli and Rohit have won numerous matches for India and were together in the side winning the 2013 and 2025 Champions Trophy, apart from finishing their T20I careers at the same time after winning the 2024 Men’s T20 World Cup.
“There’s a trust factor that builds in terms of you can rely on each other to do the job for the team. We have enjoyed our time playing together for so long for India. We were able to make our careers that long because when we were young, as I said, it was not certain that we were going to end up playing for 15 years for India.
“The journey was so long and consistently (going on). So, very, very, very grateful and very happy for all the memories, all the moments that we’ve shared and continue to do so,” concluded Kohli.
