Sometimes news of differences between them, sometimes disputes over captaincy, sometimes negative trolling among fan-army on social media. Such news has been coming in the last few years about the relationship between Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in Team India. But these two biggest legends of Team India in this generation never let such controversies or alleged fights come in the way of the goal that both of them were trying to achieve for the last 11 years. After many disappointments, frustrations and taunts, both of them finally achieved the goal for which they had put in all their efforts. The picture that came after this left every controversy, difference of opinion and ‘fan war’ miles behind.
On Saturday, June 29, in Barbados, as soon as the South African batsman played the last shot on the last ball of the 20th over bowled by Hardik Pandya, the whole of India rejoiced. All 15 players including captain Rohit Sharma, head coach Rahul Dravid, and the support staff came on the field and started celebrating the victory of T20 World Cup 2024 in their own style. Tears of joy flowed, hugs were shared, dances were held in celebration and there was a flood of photos. In this flood of photos, the photo that every Indian fan needed, which they were wishing for, also came.
The most beautiful photos of World Champions
During Team India’s victory lap, Virat Kohli-Rohit Sharma suddenly came together and then, taking cover behind the tricolour, clicked a photo with the World Cup trophy that will forever remain in the memory of every Indian fan. There would hardly be any Indian fan who would not have shared this photo or showered his love on it. Everyone was emotional after seeing it. Kohli, one of the characters in this photo, later explained why that photo was special and why he did this?

Kohli told the reason for this picture
Talking to Star Sports, Virat said that this World Cup was also very special for Rohit because his family was also present on the field for the World Cup final. Kohli told that Samaira (Rohit’s daughter) was on his shoulders and he was at the back during the entire victory lap, so he stopped Rohit and handed him the trophy and said that both of them should take a photo together.
That’s the frame!
@imVkohli and @ImRo45 have been instrumental in making #TeamIndia one of the most successful teams in ICC tournaments!

This photo is dedicated to Indian cricket
Dedicating this photo to Indian cricket, Virat said that whoever is the captain or leader, it did not matter much because both of them had been working for the last several years to make Team India a champion and they had the same goal in front of them. Kohli said that that is why he decided to take this photo because it was very special for everyone. Obviously, Kohli and Rohit finally achieved the goal they had set. Not only this, both of them also announced their retirement from T20 International together.
