He said that he made Rohit lift the trophy for some time during their victory lap and helped him celebrate it with his family, including his daughter.
“That was really special for him [Rohit]. Samaira was perched on his shoulders with his family. It was tough for me to say that, as I had already declared him behind during the victory lap. I asked if he can hold the trophy for a moment to take a photo with me. This journey has been a long one,” said Virat Kohli in an interview with Star Sports.
So when Kohli heard the news first, he was once again adamant that it could not end like this. He also reflected on their time on the Indian team together. Retaining their single-minded dedication to the pursuit of Indian cricket even after they swapped captaincy roles.
