“The kind of hunger Kohli has individually, god has blessed him. He still has something special left in him. Even Sachin (Tendulkar) has to wait for 6 World Cups to win his first title,” Bangar was quoted as saying in a video uploaded on the ICC.

“God tests the best and maybe destiny wants him to play in the next World Cup. We can hope and pray that he gets that gold medal,” he added.

Kohli broke many records in the recently concluded ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 that included equalling Sachin Tendulkar's record of most hundreds in ODIs. In the semi-final against New Zealand, Kohli became the first batter to score 50 ODI centuries.

The Delhi-born batter also became the first batter to register the most number of runs in a single edition of an ODI World Cup. In the final, Kohli scored a half-century as India posted 240 on the board. Australia chased down the target in 43 overs to win the World Cup for the sixth time.
