The lion of the cricket field, who ruled this game for years. That Virat Kohli is now at the last stage of his career, not we but every cricket legend is saying this. Although Virat’s fitness is excellent, it is believed that he will take retirement from ODI soon. Kohli was out for zero in Perth, the same happened in Adelaide also. Kohli could not open the account, but while returning from the ground to the pavilion, he did something which has upset the fans.
Virat Kohli came to bat in the 7th over, when India’s first wicket fell in the form of captain Shubman Gill. A big innings was expected from Kohli because he had previously scored centuries twice in the four innings played on this ground. But today he could not even open the account, Xavier Bartlett dismissed Gill and Kohli in the same over.

When will Virat Kohli retire from ODI?
Even before the series, it was being said that the performance of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma in Australia would decide their future. On a question related to this, coach Gautam Gambhir had also said that he is not thinking ahead, it has to be seen how the performance of both of them is in this series. Hope his visit will be good.
But for Virat Kohli, both the matches so far have been like a nightmare. After Perth, he was out for zero in Adelaide also. This is the first time in the career of Virat Kohli, who has played more than 300 ODIs, that he was out twice consecutively without opening the account. Now his gesture in Adelaide is scaring the fans that he might actually announce his retirement after this series. Because many fans want to see him play the 2027 ODI World Cup.
