Virat Kohli Bids Farewell to Test Cricket: Anushka Sharma's Emotional Message

The Indian cricketing world was struck with another emotional moment as star batsman Virat Kohli announced his retirement from Test cricket with immediate effect. Following in the footsteps of Rohit Sharma, who recently stepped away from the longer format, Kohli will now focus solely on limited-overs cricket, marking the end of an era in Indian Test cricket.

In response to this significant announcement, actress Anushka Sharma, Kohli’s wife, shared a heartfelt message on Instagram, expressing pride and emotion over her husband's illustrious journey in red-ball cricket. Alongside a candid photo of the couple, Anushka penned a touching note that offered fans a glimpse into the personal sacrifices and emotional journey behind Kohli's professional achievements.

"They will talk about the records and milestones, but I will remember the tears you never showed, the fight no one saw, and the unwavering love you gave to this form of the game. I know how much all this has taken from you. After every Test series, you have become a little wiser, a little humbler. It has been a blessing to watch you grow through it all," she wrote.

Reflecting on her expectations of how his career would end, she added, "Somehow, I always imagined you would retire from international cricket in white. But you have always listened to your heart, and so I just want to say, my love, you have earned every bit of this farewell."

The post has gone viral, with fans and fellow celebrities pouring in their love and support for Kohli as he bids goodbye to the format in which he built a legendary legacy.
