Virat Kohli has said the 2027 ODI World Cup will be his last tournament for India. He made the statement to broadcaster JioStar on Saturday, saying his goal now is to leave everything on the field and try to win the trophy one final time. Kohli, who plays only the 50 over format now, already retired from T20 internationals and Tests earlier. That announcement raises an obvious question. How many more ODIs will fans actually get to see Kohli play for India before that final World Cup match in 2027. Based on the confirmed board schedules as of now, here is the full breakdown, series by series.

In total, India currently have 14 confirmed bilateral ODIs on the calendar before the World Cup begins, spread across four series and three months, from September 2026 to January 2027. Add the Asia Cup, once confirmed, and that number could rise further before Kohli walks out for what he has now called his final World Cup for India.
