Virat Kohli, one of the most successful and famous cricketers in the world, started his career in cricket at a young age. Here's a brief timeline of his early career:
Kohli was born on November 5, 1988, in Delhi, India. His father, Prem Kohli, worked as a criminal lawyer and mother, Saroj Kohli, was a housewife.
Kohli's interest in cricket began at a young age. He started playing cricket when he was just three years old.
At the age of nine, Kohli joined the West Delhi Cricket Academy, where he received his initial cricket training.
Kohli's talent was quickly recognized, and he began representing Delhi in various age-group tournaments. He captained the Delhi Under-15 team and later the Under-17 team.
In 2006, Kohli was selected to play for the Indian Under-19 team. He was the leading run-scorer for India in the 2008 U-19 Cricket World Cup, which India won under his captaincy.
In the same year, Kohli made his debut for the Delhi senior team in the Ranji Trophy, India's premier domestic cricket tournament.
Kohli's consistent performances in domestic cricket earned him a spot in the Indian national team. He made his debut in August 2008 against Sri Lanka in an ODI.
Kohli's breakthrough performance came in the 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup, where he was the tournament's second-highest run-scorer, with 282 runs in 9 matches. India won the tournament, and Kohli's contribution was crucial.
Kohli's career graph has only gone up since then. He has been a consistent performer for India in all formats of the game and is regarded as one of the greatest batsmen of all time.
