WATCH: Emotional Virat Kohli video calls Anushka, kids after T20 World Cup victory

An emotional Virat Kohli shared one of the biggest highlights of his cricket career with his teammates and family after India clinched the T20 World Cup 2024 crown in Barbados.

Following the customary post-match routines, Kohli took a moment to connect with his family back home, cherishing the special occasion. He was seen at Kensington Oval on Saturday, June 29, using his mobile phone to talk to his wife, Anushka Sharma, and their children.

Kohli made funny faces while seemingly talking to his baby boy, Akaay, unable to hold back his tears as emotions overcame him. His crucial role in India's seven-run victory over South Africa in the men's T20 World Cup Final earned him the Player of the Match Award for his heroic 59-ball 76 in one of the most thrilling tournament finishes.

Announcing his retirement from T20 internationals, Kohli expressed his desire to pave the way for the next generation in this format. He momentarily stepped away from the celebrating Indian group to have a quick word with his family. Meanwhile, fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah celebrated the win with his wife, broadcaster Sanjana Ganesan, who was present at the venue.
