Meanwhile, the 37-year-old is set to return to competitive action in IPL 2026, which is likely to commence on March 26. During the 2025 season, Virat Kohli secured his first IPL title as Royal Challengers Bengaluru defeated Punjab Kings in the final under the captaincy of Rajat Patidar.

The right-handed batter continues to be the highest run-scorer in the tournament’s history, accumulating 8,661 runs in 259 innings at an average of 39.54 and a strike rate of 132.85. His tally includes 63 fifties and eight hundreds, with a best of 113* against Punjab Kings in 2016.

“Virat Kohli Is Absolute King” – Irfan Pathan On Babar Azam Comparisons

India and Pakistan clashed in Match 27 of the T20 World Cup 2026 on February 15 in Colombo, where the Men in Blue secured a dominant 61-run win after putting up 175 on the board. Pakistan’s Babar Azam had a quiet outing, managing only five runs.

In a video on his YouTube channel, Irfan Pathan said comparisons between Babar Azam and Virat Kohli should stop, adding that Kohli has delivered in high-pressure games against Pakistan, unlike the Pakistan captain.

“First of all, stop comparing Babar Azam and Virat Kohli. Honestly, no one should be compared to him. Virat Kohli is a legend (Virat Kohli baap aadmi hai), an absolute king. Just look at the innings he has played against Pakistan. Take, for example, the 2022 World Cup. Has Babar Azam ever played such an innings under pressure?”
