Ever since Virat Kohli announced his Test retirement on May 12, 2025, questions started to come up if he'll be able to play in ODIs with at same intensity as he's known for. Kohli's first two ODIs after announcing retirement were in Australia and he got out on duck in both the matches. In the next three matches played though, Kohli answered all the questions with some style. He first scored a fifty in final match of the three-ODI series in Australia then scored two back-to-back tons the first two matches of the ongoing three-match series in India against South Africa.
