Rohit announced his retirement from T20 internationals after guiding the team to their second T20 World Cup victory, describing it as the ideal moment to bid farewell to the format. He joined his longtime teammate Virat Kohli, who also retired from T20Is shortly after India’s seven-run victory over South Africa in the final. Rohit concluded his T20I career with an impressive record of 4,231 runs from 159 matches, which included five centuries and 32 fifties.
