India batter Virat Kohli has ruled out a T20 international comeback at the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028. Cricket will return to the Olympics for the first time since 1900 at the Games in LA as one of five new sports.

Virat Kohli made his T20I debut in 2010 but stepped away from T20 cricket after India's win in the T20 World Cup last year, where they beat South Africa in the final.

Virat Kohli welcomed the inclusion of cricket in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics and, although the Indian great will not be coaxed out of retirement for the showpiece, he said he believed a new generation of Indian athletes would be ready to strike gold.
