Former Australian cricketer David Warner said the dream of playing with Virat Kohli was incomplete. I couldn't even play with Virat in the IPL. Lyricist Javed Akhtar said, “I am disappointed with Virat's early retirement, there was a lot of cricket left.”
Team India's Virat Kohli retired from Test cricket on May 12. After retiring from the Red Ball cricket at the age of 36, many experienced players said that he had taken the decision in a hurry. He could not even finish 10,000 runs in Virat Test, scoring 30 centuries and scored 9230 runs.
Warner said- I wanted to play in Virat's team “I have been playing cricket against Virat for a decade, I realized how challenged it was,” David Warner said in an interview to Revzsportz, “I have been playing cricket against Virat for a decade.” After the retirement of players like Tendulkar, Dravid, Laxman, Virat took over the team.
I always enjoyed playing in front of him. Whenever I play in front of him in IPL, his energy influenced me. It was my dream to play in the same team with Virat at some time. I will always be harassed that my dream is incomplete.
David Warner and Virat Kohli last faced each other in the 2024 T20 World Cup.
Virat is a great leader- Warner Warner further said, 'Virat's Test and the record in ODIs has been excellent. While running, there is no one around it. His energy never diminished while playing for India. Virat's captaincy made him different from the rest, showed in Australia and England why he was special.
Many players said that Virat wanted to play a little more, but I think Virat knows when to stop playing. He knows his game well, so I support his decision. He will always be known as a great leader.
David Warner from SRH and Virat Kohli from RCB led the team in the 2016 IPL final. Then SRH won the title by beating the RCB.
Varun Grover wrote, Kohli's largest character in Test cricket Varun Grover, author of films like Stand-up Comedian and Masan, said on social media, 'Test cricket is different from other games as it is a game of story. 4 innings, 5 days, 22 experts, changing weather, sometimes three times a day, moisture in the air, pitch health, fate on coins, and changing mental possibilities at every moment.
Even if every game is synonymous with any aspects of life, Test cricket is like a literary novel – which includes several styles in the same ink. That is why in Test cricket only he was successful in which he had a story to say. A long story that doesn't end even after writing on every pitch – wet, dry, Indian, foreign.
Virat Kohli is the largest character of the last decade of this novel. Not only did he experience all the essence of this novel but also made it rich.
He has written a lot about what he gave to the team and India, but he gave the style of Test cricket that very few people can do- a sensitive hero who looks beautiful in both win and defeat.
Varun Grover wrote, Virat looks beautiful in both defeat and victory in Test cricket.
