00:00What a thing, goosebumps, what a thing, the greatest cricketer in the world, Virat Kohli has announced his retirement from T20 International.

00:09After today, Virat Kohli will not be seen in any T20 International, in action.

00:14But, what a full of passion, I am personally so glad, as a cricket fan, I am so glad that a great batsman like Virat Kohli,

00:25who deserved to announce his retirement at such a time, at such a stage.

00:31And T20, at such a time, when Virat Kohli has played a key role, by scoring more than 70 runs,

00:37to make his team win the T20 World Cup.

00:40Virat Kohli has announced his retirement from T20 International.

00:44I would like, as a cricket fan, to give a big round of applause to Virat Kohli, the greatest cricketer in the world.

00:53Thank you, Virat Kohli, for giving us such great moments.

00:56And regardless, whether we belong to any country, if you are a fan of cricket, you have to be a fan of Virat Kohli.

01:03And what a thing, Basit bhai, goosebumps, amazing, I mean, it was great to hear a few things.

01:09According to me, he was in a hurry.

01:11Yes, he should have played more.

01:13He should have played more.

01:14And today, I am saying a sentence, I think people will feel very bad.

01:18Yes.

01:20Virat Kohli,

01:21It's a pillow talk, Basit.

01:22Virat Kohli,

01:23It's not a pillow talk, sir.

01:24Yes.

01:25What, what?

01:26It's a serious thing.

01:27Yes, I mean,

01:28Virat Kohli is Javed Mianat of T20.

01:31Okay, right.

01:34Sir, Kamran Akmal sir, a superstar.

01:38Yes.

01:39I think in the next 20-25 years, very few people will come close to him, like his performance,

01:45like how he led.

01:46I think it was a great time when he announced his retirement after winning.

01:51And what a brilliant way, what a brilliant speech.

01:54World Cup, he wanted to make it a part of his life.

01:56Yes.

01:57He achieved it.

01:58Amazing moment, happy retirement.

02:00We will miss him in T20 cricket.

02:03Right.

02:04In one day and test matches, I think he will play for 5-6 years.

02:09I don't think he will play that much because he left T20 with such fitness.

02:14I don't think there can be a better role model for youngsters.

02:18Modern day cricket.

02:20No one.

02:21Shahid bhai, this is a filmy story, which is not filmy, but real.

02:26Such an iconic player, but unfortunately, he is playing well,

02:31he is giving the team match-winning innings,

02:33but the trophy is not in his hands.

02:35Then he goes to the World Cup, loses in the final in the last World Cup.

02:38Then he goes to the World Cup, plays a very bad World Cup.

02:40Then the team reaches the final.

02:42He plays well, becomes the man of the match,

02:44makes the team win and says, now the next generation should go.

02:47There could not have been a better ending to this story.

02:50This is the sign of greatness of any player.

02:52And when India won the 2011 World Cup,

02:55Virat Kohli said that Sachin Tendulkar should be lifted on his shoulders.

02:59Today, when Harsha Bogle told him that you should be lifted on your shoulders,

03:02he said no, Rohit Sharma should be lifted because he is the captain.

03:05What a great thing.

03:06So much greatness.

03:07In the press conference, when it will be a winning press conference,

03:10Rohit will also announce his retirement.

03:12First of all, congratulations to Shahid Bhai.

03:15He had already said that he would win or lose.

03:19You had said that Virat Kohli would win.

03:21Even if he loses, he would still do it.

03:23What a legend of the game.

03:24What a great man.

03:26And at the same time, very humble also.

03:28He has changed a lot after 2009.

03:31He has groomed himself.

03:32One thing is to play well,

03:34along with that, to speak well.

03:36Being a role model for youngsters,

03:38he is a great player.

03:40It's the end of an era.

03:42It's a pity that we won't be able to see Virat Kohli in action.

03:46I remember that scene from many years ago,

03:50when Sachin Tendulkar was in a speech,

03:52some youngsters from India were sitting there.

03:54They were saying that they won't be able to find a player like you.

03:57They were saying that only one of them will be there.

03:58And actually, Virat Kohli was sitting there.

04:00And Rohit Sharma was sitting there.

04:02And they proved that Sachin Tendulkar wasn't wrong.

04:06But again, you don't get a player like Virat Kohli in a few years.

04:12He comes after a long time.

04:13Is it so, Basit bhai?

04:14100 percent.

04:15He is a legend.

04:16He is a match-winner.

04:17He didn't become a hero by running against weak teams.

04:21He became a hero by performing against good teams.

04:24And I think, no matter how much you applaud him,

04:28it's not enough.

04:29And as Rajeev said,

04:30we talk a lot about cricket now.

04:31But a quick comment on this too.

04:32When a player becomes a superstar,

04:34you get international exposure.

04:36Wherever you speak,

04:37for millions of people,

04:39you are the ambassador of that country.

04:41So, what you are saying,

04:42how you are speaking,

04:43whether you are humble or proud in your attitude,

04:44it all matters a lot.

04:45So, Virat has done wonders in cricket.

04:48In this regard,

04:49all these grounds have also improved a lot, right?

04:52A lot.

04:53When we played the first IPL in 2008,

04:56we ourselves saw what he was doing.

04:59He has played in the U-19 World Cup.

05:01So, we felt that he is not serious about cricket.

05:04Yes.

05:05So, I think, after that day,

05:07he finished the IPL in 2009.

05:10He joined the team.

05:11After that, I think,

05:12his great Sachin,

05:14we saw how he handled himself,

05:16how he took himself.

05:18When there will be players in such a team,

05:20the youngsters who will come,

05:21they will learn.

05:22So, I think,

05:23Virat Kohli is a great asset of Indian cricket.

05:26Great Sachin Tendulkar.

05:27And he is coming on track.

05:29You see,

05:30the back-up he has made.

05:32These players are coming on track.

05:34So, that's why I left him.

05:36He knows that my system is so strong.

05:38The players are very big.

05:40Let's see a quick summary.
