India great Kohli retires from Test cricket

Indian cricket captain Virat Kohli shocked the world today by announcing his retirement from Test cricket. The 33-year-old has been a stalwart of the Indian team for over a decade.

Kohli made his Test debut in 2011 and quickly established himself as one of the best batsmen in the world. He has scored over 7,000 runs in Test cricket at an average of over 50.

His leadership on the field and off it has been instrumental in India’s success in Test cricket in recent years. Kohli led India to their first-ever Test series win in Australia in 2018-2019.

His aggressive captaincy and uncompromising attitude have made him a fan favorite around the world. Kohli was also known for his sportsmanship and fair play on the field.

His retirement comes as a shock to many, as he was expected to continue playing Test cricket for a few more years. However, Kohli cited personal reasons for his decision to step away from the longest format of the game.

Despite his retirement from Test cricket, Kohli will continue to play in limited-overs formats for India. He remains an integral part of the Indian team and will continue to lead them in ODIs and T20Is.

Fans and fellow cricketers took to social media to express their shock and sadness at Kohli’s retirement. Many have hailed him as one of the greatest cricketers of all time.

Kohli’s legacy in Test cricket will be remembered for generations to come. His contributions to Indian cricket have been immense, and he will always be regarded as one of the greats of the game.

As Kohli walks away from Test cricket, Indian cricket will undoubtedly miss his leadership, skill, and passion for the game. His presence will be sorely missed on the field, but his legacy will live on forever.
