Virat Kohli REVEALS Truth Behind VIRAL PIC With Rohit Sharma After T20 WC 2024 Win
Barbados: Following India’s historic win in Barbados, a picture featuring the two stalwarts – Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli – went viral. Hours after the win, Kohli revealed the truth behind the viral picture. Revealing that Rohit’s daughter was present, Kohli admitted that he suddenly felt there should be a picture with the India captain and that is when it was decided.
“It was a very special thing for him [Rohit] as well. His family is here, Samaira [Rohit’s daughter] was on his shoulder. But I just felt like in the victory lap he was behind the whole time. I told him, you also hold the trophy for a while, for two minutes. We should take a picture together because this journey has been very long,” Kohli revealed in a video shared by Star Sports.
Following the seven-run win, Kohli announced his retirement from T20Is during his speech after winning the Player of the Match award in the finale as he scored 76 runs off 59 balls. A few minutes after Kohli’s announcement, Rohit too made it official that he has already played his last T20I.
This picture epitomises how I’m feeling right now. So many words but can’t find the right ones to express what yesterday meant to me but I will, and I will share them, but right now I’m basking in a dream come true for a billion of us. pic.twitter.com/X2eyU3Eaqm
