Kohli is the second highest run-scorer in the history of T20 internationals behind team-mate Rohit Sharma.
Virat Kohli helped India secure the T20 World Cup with a player-of-the-match performance against South Africa, then immediately announced his retirement from the format.
“This was a now-or-never situation. This is my last T20 game playing for India, my last World Cup, so I wanted to make the most of it,” he said. He had struggled to make an impression throughout the competition, averaging just 10 with a pedestrian strike-rate of a run-a-ball.
