News India Live, Digital Desk: Test Retirement: Ravi Shastri has said that Virat Kohli was constantly tired of public criticisms, due to which he retired from the Test. He said that he believes that this average batsman is still good for playing cricket with a red ball for two-three years. Shastri said that he spoke to Kohli before announcing his retirement last Monday. Kohli has scored 9,230 runs including 30 centuries at an average of 46.85 in his brilliant career of 123 Test matches.
The former Indian coach told the ICC review, “I talked to him about it, I think that [उनकी घोषणा से] A week ago and his mind was very clear that he gave us everything. There was no regrets. “
Virat shocked me because I felt that at least two-three years of Test match cricket remains. But then, when you are mentally tired and ripe, it tells your body. You can physically be the most fit person in this field.
He said, “You can be more fit than more than half of your team players, but mentally you are fine, as they say, it sends a message to the body. You know that, that’s all.”
Shastri said that Kohli’s victory hunger and extremely aggressive intentions made him into the headlines, causing fatigue in him.
He has received praise worldwide. The number of fans is more than any other cricketer in the last decade. Whether it is Australia, or South Africa, he inspired people to watch the game. There was a relationship of love and love between them.
He said, “He used to get angry because he had the ability to shake the audience. The way he celebrated, you know that his intensity was such that he was like a grain.”
It spread very fast, not only in the dressing room, but also in the living room of people watching cricket. Therefore, he was an infectious personality. “
Kohli and Shastri shared a brilliant partnership with captain-coach. As captain Kohli won 40 out of 68 Tests, which is a record for any Indian captain.
The former all -rounder said, “If he decided to do something, he gave his 100%, which is not easy to match. Personally, as a bowler, as a batsman.”
The player does his job, [और] Then you sit comfortably. But when the team goes on the field with Kohli, it seems that he has to take all the wickets, he has to take all the catches, he has to take all the decisions on the field.
After so much participation, I think if he does not rest, if he does not decide how much he wants to play in various formats, then there will be fatigue in it somewhere.
