The emotional toll of years of striving for this victory was evident as Kohli was overcome with tears of joy. His emotions poured out, but Kohli quickly composed himself to share a heartwarming moment with his family.

His knock included six boundaries and two sixes, showcasing his skill and determination under pressure. After the match, Kohli announced his retirement from T20 International cricket, ending his career on a high note.
Earlier, after the final over was bowled, Kohli and Rohit Sharma, two stalwarts of Indian cricket, shared a warm embrace on the field, symbolizing their camaraderie and mutual respect. The duo’s partnership, both on and off the field, has been instrumental in India’s success in international cricket.
After years of dedication and determination, Kohli achieved his goal, leaving a lasting mark on Indian cricket. As he steps away from T20 Internationals, Kohli’s legacy as one of cricket’s greatest players is secure, and his contributions to Indian cricket will be remembered for generations.
