- Virat Kohli told BCCI that he planned to withdraw from test cricket before summer
- The 36 -year -old won 40 of his 68 games and affected 9,230 points at an average of 46.85
- Kohli would be the third test of the retirement of one of India’s superstars in six months
India is faced with the third test retreat from one of their generational superstars within six months of the news that Virat Kohli does not want to visit England this summer.
Kohli, 36, would have told the Indian hierarchy that the time had come for him to move away since the five -game series against the Ben Stokes team reports the start of a new cycle of the world championship.
Although development has just been revealed, he has been in discussion with officials of the Indian board of directors for weeks and should discuss more the issue with the chief selector Ajit Agarkar in the coming days.
He has followed farewell to the test of two 38 -year -old children since December: Captain Rohit Sharma calling for this this week after the career of 106 capes by Ravichandran Ashwin ended with a transport of 537 counters.
If Kohli cannot be convinced to continue, he will retire as the most successful captain in India – with 40 victories in 68 games – in addition to 9,230 points to an average of 46.85.
However, his personal statistics have plunged over the past six years. At its peak in 2019, its average rose to 55.1, but its long format performance has not maintained the level of its limits since.

Last year, Kohli retired from Twenty20 Internationals last July after India won the World Cup and he expected it to focus on tests since the bilateral series of a day is on trigger.
However, his absence from the first six of India would leave tourists with a lack of experience and the absence of a wise head towards anyone who is the new captain.
Shubman Gill and Jasprit Bumrah are the favorites to succeed Rohit before a tour that was not nice for India in terms of recent results: they won four and lost 13 in the last four visits.
