All eyes are on the renowned Virat Kohli, who is still a formidable force in the cricket world, as fans of the game prepare for the highly anticipated IPL 2024 season. Former Royal Challengers Bengaluru teammate Chris Gayle recently stated in an interview that he is adamant about Kohli’s capacity to dominate the game for a very long time.
Gayle described Virat Kohli as incredibly strong and one-of-a-kind. In addition to highlighting Kohli’s potential to be an excellent player for many more years in all forms, he showed interest in the decisions that Kohli will make going forward for both Indian cricket and himself.
The one and only Virat Kohli, who is incredibly special, is still going strong. He has plenty of years left to play in all formats. Gayle told Cricbuzz, “We’ll see what calls he makes for himself and for Indian cricket as well.”
Kohli’s health and desire are still indisputable, even in light of worries about managing his workload. Speculations regarding his position in the team have been rampant, as he has only played in two Twenty20 internationals since the T20 World Cup in 2022. Gayle, too, feels that Kohli has continually demonstrated his strength in all formats by displaying his deadly batting ability.
There are no adequate words to express them. Chris Gayle
Gayle praised Kohli’s incredible career, emphasizing how impressed he is by the fact that Kohli and Sachin Tendulkar are the only two players who have scored more than 50 hundreds in one-day internationals (ODIs). Gayle conveyed his admiration, acknowledging that there were not enough words to adequately convey their accomplishments and feeling honored to be listed with such legendary cricket players.
The two players with the most ODI hundreds (Sachin and Virat) are unmatched. I’m at a loss for words when it comes to them. It is unique to be placed in the same category as them.

“What’s even more amazing is that Sakin was the first to establish trends, having over 100 international centuries to his name. He continued, “And as you mentioned, the Universe Boss has contributed flavor and excitement to all formats.
Significant significance surrounds Kohli’s impending IPL 2024 stint, particularly as he hopes to guide Royal Challengers Bengaluru to their first-ever title triumph. Kohli has already established himself as a titan in IPL history with an incredible tally of 7263 runs in 237 games. With the T20 World Cup approaching, there is a lot of expectation surrounding Kohli’s position in the team as RCB gets ready to play Chennai Super Kings in their season opener on March 22.
