hugging star batsman
Virat Kohli
.
These pictures of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma hugging are said to have broken the internet. The pictures shared on various social media platforms including X, Instagram and Facebook have got millions of likes.
Talking about the hug at the felicitation ceremony, Kohli said "We have been playing for the last 15 years, this is the first time, I see Rohit so emotional - he was crying, I was crying, a hug between both of us - I will never forget that day." The felicitation function was organised by the
BCCI
at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
Kohli said that winning the T20 World Cup 2024 was a special moment for him as he had not realised the gravity of the moment when he was part of M.S Dhoni's team which won the 2011 ODI World Cup at this same venue. "I was 21-22 at that time and did not realise why the senior players were getting so emotional. After winning this World Cup, I have realised how special this is," said Kohli. He added that he had instantly realised that it was time for him to say goodbye to the format and make way for youngsters.
What Virat Kohli told PM Modi
During the Indian team's interaction with Prime Minister
Narendra Modi
at his residence on July 4, Kohli said, "We lived each ball at the end, we can't explain what was going on inside. We lost hope at one moment, then Hardik took a wicket and then with each ball, we got the energy. I am happy that I was able to contribute to the team in such a big game after a tough time. I won't be able to forget it. I was happy that I was able to take the team to a fighting total."
