Rohit Sharma
After guiding India to World Cup glory, Rohit Sharma, the leading run-scorer in T20Is at the time of his retirement, decided to step down. This means India will need a new captain and opening batsman for the T20 format.![Virat Kohli](https://middaycdn.s.llnwi.net/Radiocity-images/images/uploads/cricketers-retirement-2024-july1-2.png)
Virat Kohli
The indomitable Virat Kohli, who received the Man of the Match award in the final with a crucial 76, also announced his retirement from T20Is. Kohli, the second-highest T20I run scorer and a two-time Player of the Tournament winner at the T20 World Cup, leaves a significant void.![Ravindra Jadeja](https://middaycdn.s.llnwi.net/Radiocity-images/images/uploads/cricketers-retirement-2024-july1-3.png)
