But the talismanic cricketer knows 'can't keep going forever', and wants to leave no business undone by the time he decided to bid cricket goodbye.

In a video posted by RCB's social media handles, the 35 year old said: 'I think, as sportsmen, we do have an end date to our careers, so I'm just working backwards, I don't want to finish my career thinking what if I had done this on that particular day because I can't keep going on and on forever.

'I want to give it everything I have till the time I play and that's the only thing that keeps me going,' Kohli added.
