Indian batter Virat Kohli has announced his retirement from Test cricket, bringing the curtain down on a career that spanned 14 years


Legendary India batter Virat Kohli has announced his retirement from Test cricket with immediate effect. The former India captain finishes with 9230 runs in 123 Tests at an average of 46.85, which includes 30 centuries.


In an Instagram post on Monday (May 12), Kohli wrote, It's been 14 years since I first wore the baggy blue in Test cricket. Honestly, I never imagined the journey this format would take me on. It's tested me, shaped me, and taught me lessons I'll carry for life.


I'll always look back at my Test career with a smile. #269, signing off.


Thank you for the memories in whites, Virat Kohli
