Virat Kohli is a cricket legend. He’s won many titles. His team, Royal Challengers Bangalore, just won their first IPL title. Kohli waited 17 years for this. But there’s one trophy he’ll never win.
Kohli’s career started with a bang. He won the 50-over World Cup in 2011. He was part of the team that won the Champions Trophy in 2013 and 2025. And in 2024, India won the T20 World Cup. Kohli was on that team too.
Kohli used to captain Royal Challengers Bangalore. Even after stepping down, he kept playing for them. But for 17 years, his team couldn’t win the IPL title. They made it to the finals three times but lost. Then, in 2025, Kohli’s dream came true. Royal Challengers Bangalore won their first IPL title.
After winning the T20 World Cup in 2024, Kohli retired from the format. Then, he shocked everyone by announcing his retirement from Test cricket on May 12. Now, he only plays One-Day Internationals. But there’s one trophy missing from his collection: the World Test Championship. India made it to the finals twice but lost both times. Now that Kohli has retired from Test cricket, this dream will remain unfulfilled.
