From Cricket to Olympics! Virat Kohli Goes Global Again
Virat Kohli is not just a star of cricket, he is a global star. While Olympics had to post something about the LA 2028 Olympics, they featured Virat Kohli in the same. Even after two years of his retirement from T20Is, he continues to be the face of the game.

Virat Kohli continues to be the face of the game, as he continues to dominate with his popularity. While everyone is waiting for the 2027 World Cup, there is another bigger event down the horizon. And it is the LA Olympics, which will be played in 2028. For the first time in 128 years, the Olympics will also be hosting cricket.
This surely is a big event for the cricket fans and teams worldwide. Since it will be hosted in the T20 format, the Olympics decided to post about all the T20 leagues taking place around the world. For this, they featured the King, Virat Kohli in their post. Talking about the T20 Cricket series around the world, they used an image of Virat Kohli in the RCB jersey.

The post showcased all the T20 series such as Pakistan Super League, Big Bash League, T20 Blast, and more. In the IPL, the page used a photo of Royal Challengers Bengaluru when the team had won the title last year.
Our Take
Virat Kohli retired from the T20I format after winning the T20 World Cup 2024. Since then, he has been playing for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru only in the IPL, and continues to do so. Even after his retirement, he still remains the face of the game, maintaining his spot as the top personality.
That could be the key reason why even the Olympics used the images of Virat Kohli in their recent post. A few months back, Kohli also expressed his desire to win the Olympic Gold for the Indian team. He sarcastically said that he would take back his retirement, play the Olympic final and retire again after winning the gold.
