Kohli virat He is approaching at the end of his prolific career as a player and hopes to continue enjoying the game. Kohli recently won the fourth ICC tournament of his senior career when India defeat New Zealand in the Champions Trophy 2025 final. The batting master has relieved fears about the immediate retirement of the international Cricket.

With the Cricket that keeps him occupied during most of his life, does Kohli concentrated on something particular to do after retirement?

“I don’t really know what I will do after retirement, I recently asked a teammate the same question and obtained the same answer. Yes, but it can be a lot of trip, “Kohli said during a conversation session at the RCB Innovation Lab.

Kohli, 36, has numerous records, even during most centuries in the history of hate. However, the former Captain of India no longer aspires to achieve milestones.

“It’s about pure joy, enjoyment, competitive streak and love for the game. And while that is there, I will continue playing. As I said today, I’m not playing for any achievement, “he said.

Kohli says that the competitive streak makes it difficult for an athlete to decide when the right time is to get away from the game.

He recalled having a conversation with the legendary Rahul Dravid to discover the answer.

“You know the competitive streak does not allow you to find the answer (for the retirement question). I had a very interesting conversation about this with Rahul Dravid. He said you always have to keep in touch with yourself. Find out where they place it in your life and the answer is not so easy, “Kohli said.

You may be going through a lean phase, and you feel it is. But it might not be. But then, when the time comes, my competitive streak would not allow me to accept it. Maybe another month. Maybe six more months. So, I think it’s a good balance. At this time in my life I feel quite happy, “he added.

Kohli will return to action with the IPL 2025 for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru and we finally hope to guide the franchise to its first covered.

The batting superstar admits that age has made a challenge to remain at the top of its game.

“I want to have all my energy instead. Now, much more effort is needed as the people who have played the game for a long period of time understand. You cannot do so many things in the middle or end of the 30 that you can in the mid -20 years. I am also in a slightly different place in my life, “he said.

“I think it is a natural progression for me. I am sure that all these young people expect to get to that place. But now, the energy that comes out of me feels very peaceful and calm, “he added.
