Virat Kohli arrived in Sri Lanka on July 29, joining the side ahead of India’s ODI series against Sri Lanka. He was spotted doing some catching practice during the training session for the upcoming fixture. Kohli was also spotted having a few words with Team India’s newly appointed head coach Gautam Gambhir during the training.
The T20 World 2024 final that was held in Bridgetown, Barbados on June 29 was the last international match Virat Kohli had competed in. Kohli played a fine knock in the final to score a 59-ball 76. His knock proved crucial as India got the better of South Africa by seven runs to win their second T20 World Cup title.
Following the triumph, Kohli announced his retirement from the format along with Rohit Sharma and Ravindra Jadeja. Kohli will now be eyeing to make a solid start under the coaching of Gautam Gambhir.
