“The team at Sporting Beyond shares my goals and values of transparency, integrity, and a love for sport, in all its forms. This opens a new chapter for me as I look forward to my partnership with my new team, who will be working with me on all of my business interests."
This year, it has been a rollercoaster ride for Kohli on the field. While he celebrated a few historic milestones, Kohli has also faced struggles of late.
The right-handed batting maestro missed the England Tests early in 2024 but came back strong to help India secure the T20 World Cup in Barbados.

Recently, his rankings also dropped, leaving him ranked 22nd in the latest ICC Test rankings, below Pakistan’s Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan.
As India prepare for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Kohli’s form remains a focal point.
