Virat Kohli has shocked the cricket world by announcing his retirement from Test cricket just weeks before India’s England tour. At 36, Kohli steps away from red-ball cricket after a legendary 14-year journey, having led India to historic wins—including the unforgettable 2018-19 series victory in Australia. His retirement follows Rohit Sharma and R Ashwin’s exit from the format, marking a major transition for Indian Test cricket.
