Kohli made his international debut for the Indian cricket team in 2008, and since then, he has become one of the most consistent performers in the sport. He has represented India in all three formats of the game: Test matches, One Day Internationals (ODIs), and Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is).

In Test cricket, Kohli has scored over 7,000 runs, including 27 centuries, and has been a key figure in India's batting lineup. He has been known for his aggressive and technically sound batting style, often showcasing exceptional skills in chasing targets.
