Ahead of his highly anticipated comeback in India colours this week in Australia, Virat Kohli raised eyebrows with a cryptic social media post, three days out from the opening fixture at the Optus Stadium in Perth, stirring further speculations over his playing future.
“The only time you truly fail is when you decide to give up,” wrote Kohli on Thursday morning on an X post that has since gone viral with over 178,000 views in 25 minutes.

Speaking after India’s victorious Test series against West Indies, head coach Gautam Gambhir had remarked on the comeback of Kohli and former captain Rohit Sharma. Gambhir affirmed that it was impractical to look ahead to the 2027 ODI World Cup, and rather wished that the senior duo had a fine tour Down Under.
“They (Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli) are quality players, and their experience will be invaluable. With the 2027 World Cup still two and a half years away, it’s important to stay focused on the present. Kohli and Rohit are both exceptional players, and their return will be a big boost. Hopefully, they have a successful tour, and more importantly, the team comes out with a strong series performance in Australia,” Gambhir said after the India vs West Indies series.
