Virat Kohli will not play Test after Rohit

Earlier, Team India captain Rohit Sharma retired from Test cricket. Now Virat Kohli also said goodbye to Test cricket. Both have retired from the Test just before the England tour. The Indian team has to go on a tour of England next month. In England, Team India has to play a five -match Test series. The Test series between India and England will start from June 20.

This was Virat Kohli’s Test career

Virat Kohli, who made his Test debut for India in 2011, played a total of 123 Test matches. During this, 9230 runs were scored at an average of 46.85 with King Kohli’s bat. Virat has 7 double centuries, 30 centuries and 31 half -centuries in the Test. Virat played his last Test against Australia on 3 January 2025.

Virat Kohli Retirement News: Former India captain and star batsman Virat Kohli has made up his mind to retire from Test cricket. He has asked the BCCI to retire from the Test. However, the board has asked King Kohli to reconsider its decision. Meanwhile, news has come that the BCCI has entrusted an influential person to convince King Kohli.

News agency IANS has claimed this in its report. IANS has said in its report that Virat Kohli has made BCCI aware of his desire to retire from Test cricket ahead of the important five -match series starting in England from June 20. But in view of the important series of England, the BCCI has earlier urged Kohli to reconsider his decision.

Sources told IANS, “Yes, to reconsider and persuade Virat Kohli to rethink and persuade his possible plan to retire from Test cricket, the BCCI has called a very influential cricket personality to talk to charismatic cricketers in the coming days and persuade him to carry forward his career in the longest format.” Especially given that the tour of England is close. India has to play a five -Test series in England. The first Test of the series will be played from June 20.

Let me tell you that Kohli was considered noting to be a part of the team for the England tour, but it turned out that he has considered leaving the format that he always liked to play, as he shows his outspoken words by captaining India in 68 Tests. Sources said, although Kohli is a person who does not really change his mind quickly, but the words of a very influential cricket person can have some impact on his decisions and thoughts about the future of Test cricket.
