England Great Expresses 'Pity' For Virat Kohli's Replacement At No. 4: "About 15 Years..."

Former England cricketer Michael Atherton has said that he "loved" watching Virat Kohli play every day of his 123 Tests and felt it was hard for someone to take their eyes off the India stalwart when he dazzled on the crease in the red-ball format. Virat penned a note on Instagram on Monday to announce his retirement from red-ball cricket, days after his long-time compatriot Rohit Sharma bid adieu to the format. In a journey that redefined the demands of the game, Virat scored 9,230 runs at an average of 46.85, with 30 centuries and 31 fifties and finish as India's fourth-highest run-getter in the format.

Virat Kohli Was Given 'Hint' About Captaincy Return, Then 'Tone Changed': Report Claims Reason Behind Retirement

Virat Kohli's retirement from Test cricket has left Indian cricket with a vacuum that may not be filled for a long time. Already dealing with the retirements of Ravichandran Ashwin and Rohit Sharma, Indian Test cricket lost the services of another veteran when Kohli, through an Instagram post on May 12, announced that he would not longer be continuing in the longest format. That he was not keen on continuing in Tests was a buzz that was already quite loud in the days leading up to the announcement. But when it happened, most were taken aback as reports suggested that the BCCI and several other big names had tried to convince Kohli to continue playing with India's Tour of England starting in June.

Kohli's decision to hang his test boots marked an end to an illustrious 14-year-old career which saw him dominate the format, both as a batter and captain. Speaking to The Indian Express, Vengsarkar suggested that Kohli should've retired after the upcoming tour of England, but admitted it's the former India captain's call at the end of the day.

Anil Kumble's Surprise Pick As Virat Kohli's Replacement At No. 4 Spot In Tests

The Indian cricket team will take on England in an upcoming five-match Test series, starting June 20. However, the team will enter unknown territory with both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli retiring from the format over the past week. Over the past 14 years, Kohli was the backbone of the Indian Test setup, but his retirement leaves the team without a designated no. 4 in the top order. With India's squad for the series likely to be announced next week, former captain Anil Kumble has vouched for Vidarbha captain Karun Nair's inclusion.

"Gautam Gambhir Most Important": After Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli's Retirement Verdict Out On Indian Dressing Room

With the veterans Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli leaving the Test format, India now face a huge challenge to fill the void left by the two players. The team will get a replacement in batting but the overall impact that the two players bought together might not be matched anytime soon. Both Rohit and Virat brought in a huge experience with themselves of late, alongside their superb batting and on-field tactics that helped the team prosper over the years. With the duo not being part of the Test side anymore, the focus now shifts to the Indian captain that is yet to be named in the format and head coach Gautam Gambhir, who will be having a huge task of leading a lesser experienced side.

Virat Kohli 'Wanted To Continue But BCCI...': Ex-India Star Makes Colossal Claim After Sudden Retirement

Former India captain Mohammad Kaif has claimed that Virat Kohli might not have gotten the backing he anticipated from the BCCI and selectors, which in turn led to him ending his Test cricket career with immediate effect. Kohli, who scored 9,230 runs in 123 matches at an average of 46.85, wrote on Instagram on Monday that he would be retiring from Tests with immediate effect. His decision comes just five days after India captain Rohit Sharma retired from Test cricket.

Ex-India Star Names Clear Pick For Next Test Captain: "I Am Shocked...."

Former Indian cricket team batter Sanjay Manjrekar believes that Jasprit Bumrah should be the top option to replace Rohit Sharma as the Test captain. Rohit announced his retirement from Test cricket and five days later, Virat Kohli also followed suit. With the England series taking place in June, the selectors will have to choose the next captain of the Indian cricket team. Bumrah captained the side in Rohit's absence during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia but several media reports claimed that Shubman Gill is the top contender for the job right now. Manjrekar was 'shocked' that Bumrah was not the only option for captaincy and said that if the selectors are concerned about his fitness, they should choose a vice-captain who can handle the situation in his absence.

'Virat Kohli's Retirement A Huge Boost For...': Ex-England Star's Sensational Claim

Former England all-rounder Moeen Ali believes Virat Kohli's retirement from Test cricket is a “massive blow” to the format, hailing the Indian great as a “pioneer” whose passion and charisma brought fans to stadiums much like Sachin Tendulkar once did. As India prepares for a stern five-Test challenge in England starting June 20 at Headingley, Moeen acknowledged that the absence of Kohli and Rohit Sharma is a significant setback for the visitors — and a timely advantage for the hosts. “It's a massive blow to Test cricket. Virat was the one pioneer, the one guy in Test cricket that always pushed the format,” Moeen told Sky Sports. “He's done so much for the game, especially in India. I think after Sachin, he was the guy everybody came to watch. He filled out stadiums.”
