Virat Kohli Retirement: Veteran Michael von-David Warner said a big thing on retirement from Virat Kohli’s test
Michael Vaughan and David Warner on Virat Kohli Test Retirement: Former England captain Michael Vaughan and Australia’s finest opener David Warner paid tribute to his brilliant career after retiring from Indian batsman Virat Kohli’s Test format. The world remained silent on Monday morning when Virat said goodbye to his brilliant career in the red ball format and the speculation that had been going on for many days turned into reality. The 36-year-old player posted a heart-touching note on Instagram and confirmed that the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia was a great platform for his last dance. Tributes were paid not only from India but from the whole world. Vaughan sang a poem in praise of Virat and did not take the name of someone who has contributed as the Indian legend for Test cricket.
Von wrote on X, “In my play and broadcast time, no one has done the work as much as Virat Kohli for Test cricket. His passion, energy and commitment to the biggest format have helped a lot … I hope that the next generation of Indian players will replace him.” Warner, one of the most spectacular openers wearing Bagi Green, renewed old memories and recalled his first match with the Indian player. Warner thanked Virat for their best performance from others.
Warner wrote on Instagram, “The full legend of our game. When we were young, I can never forget our first match against each other. I felt that this boy is a serious contestant and will be great, which everyone will praise. You have to fill the shoes of some great players to play and take forward the country.” “Wow, have you not disappointed? Thank you for the way you want to be, so that we all compete against you. Now enjoy the time away from the white ball. Enjoy the extra family time. Thank you Virat Kohli” He concluded.
Due to Virat being out of the red ball cricket, the trend of migration from this format continues in the Indian setup. Prior to Indian batting veterans, brilliant frontline off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin said goodbye to his international career in the middle of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia earlier this year.
In a career that re -defined the demands of the game, Virat’s unmatched contribution helped him score 9,230 runs at an average of 46.85, including 30 centuries and 31 fifties and became India’s fourth highest run -scorer in this format.
