The announcement of retirement from former Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli’s Test cricket has disappointed every cricket lover. Everyone is reacting to his retirement through social media. In this episode, veteran lyricist Javed Akhtar also shared a post on the social media platform ‘X’, and said that he feels that there is still a lot of cricket left in Virat. Javed Akhtar wrote in his ‘X’ post- “Obviously Virat knows better, but as a fan of this great player I am disappointed at retiring from Test cricket ahead of his time. I think he still has a lot of cricket left. I honestly request him to rethink his decision.”
Fans are commenting fiercely on this post of Javed.
Earlier, actress Anushka Sharma shared a post on husband Virat’s retirement. He wrote in the ‘Instagram’ story section sharing his views, “So he was successful in Test cricket who had a story to say something. The long story that does not end even by writing on every pitch wet, dry, domestic, foreign, foreign, foreign, foreign, foreign, foreign, foreign, foreign.”
Earlier, the actress had made another post in which she and Virat are seen in the stadium. Both have a big smile on their face.
While sharing this photo, Anushka wrote in the caption, “People will talk about your records and achievements\u2026 but I will remember the tears that you never showed, the struggle that no one has seen\u2026 and the unwavering love that you gave to this game. I know how much they have taken away from you. After every Test series you have taken a little more intelligent, a little more intelligent and humble. I am always felt that you will always listen to the heart from international cricket\u2026 but I just want to say that my love, you have earned every moment of your retirement. “<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"New DelhiThe announcement of retirement from former Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli’s Test cricket has disappointed every cricket lover.
