On 5 November 2025, Virat Kohli celebrates his 37th birthday — a milestone that invites reflection on a career already etched in the annals of cricketing history. Born in Delhi on 5 November 1988, Kohli’s rise from a talented U19 World Cup winning captain in 2008 to the heartbeat of Indian cricket has been marked by records, determination, and an unfaltering will to win.
Kohli’s journey is defined not only by the volume of runs he has amassed, but by the contexts in which he achieved them. His mastery of the chase in One-Day Internationals, his hunger in Test matches abroad, his leadership of the Indian team, and his loyalty to the Royal Challengers Bengaluru franchise in the Indian Premier League stand out as defining chapters. The year 2025 added yet another landmark when RCB, after a long wait, clinched their maiden IPL title — an emotional moment for a man whose devotion to the team spanned nearly two decades.
Beyond the scoreboard, Kohli transformed fitness, professionalism, and attitude in Indian cricket. He became a standard-bearer for the next generation, showing that greatness comes not just from talent but from relentless work, discipline, and self-belief. On his birthday, fans around the world reflect not just on his past triumphs but on the future he still promises.
At 37, the narrative does not slow — it evolves. For Kohli, this stage brings new roles: mentor, icon, ambassador of the sport he loves. Yet the hunger remains evident. On this special day, the cricketing world celebrates a player who made records look routine, who made chasing feel thrilling, and who made the crease his arena.
Happy birthday to the legend who continues to inspire.
