Mohammed Siraj Gets Emotional After Virat Kohli's Test Retirement: "To My Superhero..."

India pacer Mohammed Siraj took to social media to congratulate his ‘superhero' after India batter Virat Kohli called curtains to his glorious time in Test cricket. Kohli, who made his Test debut in 2011, announced his retirement from red-ball cricket on Monday through a social media post. He finished his Test career with 9230 runs in 123 matches at an impressive average of 46.85 with 30 centuries and 31 half-centuries. Siraj made his Test debut during India's historic win at the 2020 Border Gavaskar Trophy.

From 'Cheeku' To 'King': How Virat Kohli Forced Gen-Z To Fall In Love With Test Cricket

Virat Kohli entered Indian drawing rooms as a quintessential "West Delhi boy'', grew on his fans like a never-ending love story with his boundless passion and finally called time on his career in whites when his legion of admirers yearned for 'One Last Dance'. In his mind, he knew that although "it is not easy", it did "feel right". The question to be asked is when exactly did Kohli get this feeling?. Perhaps it was after a torrid tour of Australia where he scored only 91 runs after his second innings century in Perth.

After Virat Kohli's retirement from Test cricket, the Board of Control for Cricket (BCCI) vice-president Rajeev Shukla hailed the star batter for his contribution in the longest format, saying that while they do not feel good about him leaving, the board respects his personal decision. In a massive development ahead of the England tour of five matches, which will kickstart India's ICC World Test Championship 2025-27 campaign, Virat Kohli announced his retirement from Tests after 14 years, marking an end to a brilliant career spanning 14 years and 123 Tests. Speaking to ANI, Shukla said, "The contribution of Virat Kohli for Test Cricket and India has been great. Any amount of praise is less. We are not feeling good that he has retired from Test Cricket. But it is his individual decision, and BCCI never puts pressure on a player for retirement. We should respect his decision. He must have thought about something before arriving to it. We will surely miss him in Test cricket as he is such a great batter."
