Virat Kohli states that the 2027 World Cup will be his last for India

According to CNA Sport, Virat Kohli says the 2027 ODI World Cup will be his last for India, with the 50-over format and the tournament played in October-November away from home. He aims to leave everything out there and win the World Cup, noting the event will be tougher with greater intensity and foreign conditions; the 2027 edition is to be hosted by South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia. Rohit Sharma says he remains motivated for another World Cup campaign, and both Kohli and Rohit were named in India's squad for the three-match ODI series against West Indies, beginning in Thiruvananthapuram.
