Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have made a comeback to India's T20I setup for the first time since the end of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022, in what is a major development for the side ahead of the T20 World Cup 2024.

The ICC revealed the nominees for the award, which is called the Sir Garfield Sobers Trophy, in its website today.

Shami, the highest wicket-taker in last year’s World Cup with 24 scalps at a staggering average of 10.7, also deservedly made the list

Kohli's 38 and 76 in India's defeat to South Africa was enough for the 35-year-old to move four places (761), positioned as the top India batter in the list.

Virat Kohli was the only batsman to test the home attack on the third day, top-scoring with 76 before being the last man out.

The BCCI officials are expected to have a meeting with Kohli about his future in T20Is

India star batter Virat Kohli is set to take a break from white-ball cricket indefinitely, according to a report by The Indian Express.

In an interview with Australian newspaper The Age, the pacer was asked what moment he would remember in his deathbed.

The 13th edition of the ICC Men's ODI World Cup came to a close with Australia beating hosts India by five wickets in the final at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad yesterday. With the showpiece event in the rearview mirror, The Daily Star Sports looks at 13 moments that mesmerised the fans in the past 46 days.

"I am a huge fan of Virat ... and he continues to show why he has to go down as one of the all-time greats, right up there with the likes of the great Sachin," Richards wrote in his column for the International Cricket Council.

It was inevitable. More than it being a question of if, it was rather a debate over how and when.

Virat Kohli and Mohammed Shami starred as India beat New Zealand to reach the World Cup final but Nasser Hussain believes captain Rohit Sharma has been their "real hero" of the tournament.

It was never in doubt, and probably only a matter of when than if for star India batter Virat Kohli, who now occupies the highest pedal in ODI cricket.

India, who Williamson described as a "blue machine", defeated his side by 70 runs in Mumbai on Wednesday to reach the World Cup final.

Tendulkar was effusive in his praise of Kohli.

In Sunday's final, India will face either Australia or South Africa who play their semi-final on Thursday.

Kohli said he was over-joyed to achieve the record in front of his wife, Anushka Sharma, and Tendulkar

"The first time I met you in the Indian dressing room, you were pranked by other teammates into touching my feet. I couldn't stop laughing that day," Tendulkar wrote on X, formerly Twitter.

Shreyas Iyer's blistering 105, which came off just 70 balls and was studded with four fours and eight sixes, provided the late fireworks for India's innings.

He did so on his former India team-mate's home ground, with batting great Tendulkar among those applauding at the Wankhede Stadium.
