Ace India batter Virat Kohli is in Mumbai, practicing for the upcoming five-ODI series in New Zealand that begins on November 4. Kohli was recently part of the Indian ODI squad that played West Indies in a three-game series.

Kohli was spotted training hard in the nets at the Cricket Club of India (CCI), Mumbai, as he got into rhythm for the New Zealand ODI series. During his session, Kohli also made the day for a young net bowler by signing his India fan jersey, giving him something special to cherish.

For a young cricketer with big ambitions, securing an autograph from one of India's most renowned players on a national team jersey was a moment to cherish. This gesture also provided a window into how Kohli engages with the upcoming generation of cricketers, many of whom grew up watching him dominate the international stage.

Kohli had a good time in the West Indies ODI series, scoring 168 runs, including the best score of 139*, at an average of 84 and a strike rate of 155.55. During this ODI series, Kohli also completed 15,000 runs in the format. He now has 15109 runs in 317 ODIs, at an average of 58.78 and a strike rate of 94.36, with 55 centuries and 79 fifties.  

India has a handful of ODIs before the ICC World Cup 2027, and Kohli will look to maximize the time he has for the ICC event. He has already stated that the 2027 50-over World Cup will be his final outing for India, and he would want to go out on a high by winning his second World Cup title.
