The "quiet" Test retirements of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma ahead of the tour of England came as a "huge surprise" to legendary spinner and former India captain Anil Kumble, who believes the two senior batters deserved an on-field farewell.

Virat Kohli Retires With Stunning Captaincy Record, Beats MS Dhoni, Sourav Ganguly In...

Virat Kohli's legacy in Test cricket will be followed for generations despite his immediate retirement from the format on Monday. The Indian cricket stalwart moulded himself as a run machine after going through thick and thin with the Men in Blue. The Delhi boy, who joined the team as a talented youngster, went on to become a legend of the game with his formidable attitude. Kohli made his India debut in 2008 in the ODI format, followed by his T20I debut in 2010, but it was not until 2011 that he made his Test debut for the country. Kohli became a regular feature in India's Test side since making his debut and showed early signs of a stellar career in his fourth Test against West Indies at Wankhede Stadium in 2011. In the match, he struck his maiden Test half-century, followed by his second one in the second innings of the match.
