Former England batter Kevin Pietersen has predicted that Virat Kohli will not retire after the 2027 World Cup. Pietersen said Kohli comes into the game with a strong mindset and competitive hunger, which could keep him playing beyond the tournament.
The remark comes amid ongoing discussion around Kohli’s long-term future in international cricket. However, Pietersen’s comments were presented as a prediction rather than a confirmation from Kohli or the Board of Control for Cricket in India.
The headline was accompanied by a file image of Kohli. No additional details were provided in the input about any official retirement decision or announcement.
