Kohli said after collecting the Man of the Match award that it was his las T20I match for India. \u201cThis was my last T20 World Cup, this is exactly what we wanted to achieve,\u201d Kohli told the broadcast after India’s win in a global tournament after 11 years. \u201cOne day you feel like you can’t get a run and this happens, God is great. (It is) just the occasion, now or never kind of situation. This was my last T20 game playing for India. We wanted to lift that cup,\u201d he said. \u201cYes I have, this was an open secret (retirement). Not something that I wasn’t going to announce even if we had lost. <\/p>\n\n\n

Time for the next generation to take the T20 game forward,\u201d Kohli confirmed when asked if he was making the official announcement about him calling it a day. \u201cIt’s been a long wait for us, waiting to win an ICC tournament. You look at someone like Rohit (Sharma), he’s played 9 T20 World Cups and this is my sixth. “He deserves it. It’s been difficult to hold things (emotions) back and I think it’s going to sink in later. It’s an amazing day and I’m thankful,\u201d Kohli added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
