Extraordinary consistency, calm under pressure, and fiery aggression these traits elevated him above the rest. Mountains of runs, a rain of centuries, and the art of chasing scores Kohli gave cricket a new definition.

As captain, he wrote golden chapters. Victories overseas, including the historic Test series win in Australia, reflect his fearless mindset. Cricket, for him, is not just a sport it is a responsibility to the nation.
Then came a difficult phase. The runs dried up, criticism grew. Many wondered was this the end?

Beyond cricket, he remains grounded. His maturity, responsibility, and work beyond the field have earned him immense respect.
