Former Australian cricketer David Warner said, “The dream of playing in a team with Virat Kohli remained incomplete.” I could not play with Virat even in IPL. At the same time, lyricist Javed Akhtar said, I am disappointed with Virat’s retirement, there was a lot of cricket left in him.
Virat Kohli of Team India retired from Test cricket on 12 May. After retirement from red ball cricket at the age of 36, many veterans said that they took this decision in a hurry. Virat could not complete even 10,000 runs in the Test, he scored 9230 runs by scoring 30 centuries.
Warner said- wanted to play in Virat’s team
David Warner said in an interview to Revjspports, “I played cricket for 1 decade against Virat, in the initial matches I came to know how challenging he is.” After the retirement of players like Tendulkar, Dravid, Laxman, Virat took responsibility for the team.
I always enjoyed playing against him. Whenever played in front of him in IPL, his energy impressed me. My dream was to play in the same team with Virat on some occasion. I will always persecute that the dream remains incomplete.
David Warner and Virat Kohli were the last clash against each other in the 2024 T20 World Cup.
Virat Great Leader- Warner
Warner further said, ‘Virat’s records were excellent in Tests and ODIs. While chasing the run, there is no one around them. His energy never reduced while playing for India. Virat’s captaincy made him separate from the rest, he explained in Australia and England why he is special.
Many players said that Virat should have played a little more, but I think Virat knows when he has to stop playing. They know their game well, so I support their decision. He will always be recognized as the best leader.
David Warner from SRH and Virat Kohli from RCB have captained their respective teams in the 2016 IPL final. SRH then won the title by defeating RCB.
Varun Grover wrote, Kohli’s biggest character of Test
Varun Grover, who wrote films like Stand-Up Comedian and Masaan, said on social media, ‘Test cricket is different from the rest of the games, because it is a game of narrator. So many variables- 4 innings, 5 days, 22 specialists, daily changing weather, many times a day changing weather, air moisture, pitch’s health, coin-written luck, and changing mental possibilities every moment.
Although every game is synonymous with any aspect of life in itself, but Test cricket is like a literacy novel- many genres are included in the same ink. So he was successful in Test cricket, who had a story to say. The long story that does not end even by writing on every pitch wet, dry, domestic, foreign.
Virat Kohli is the biggest character of the last decade of this novel. He not only lived all the juices of this novel, but also made it more rich.
What he gave to the team and India has been written a lot, but he gave the genre of Test cricket that less people are able to give- a sensitive hero who looks beautiful in both defeat and victory.
