Kohli, who is easily one of the best in modern times, announced his retirement from Tests and that send the cricketscape into mourning. Former India cricketer Virender Sehwag, who has grown up playing a lot of cricket with Kohli, urged him to rethink and come out of retirement. 

Sehwag reckoned Kohli retired too early. 

‘Feel he retired too early from the Test format’

“Definitely. I feel he retired too early from the Test format. He could've played easily for two years, the way he maintains fitness. But only Virat Kohli can tell the reasons behind the decision. It's a player's personal decision based on his will, or whether he feels exhausted,” Sehwag said on Cricbuzz.

“But according to me, the way he played, and the way he showed energy, it feels he could've easily played for two years," he added.

Kohli, RCB Flying

Kohli has been in sublime form in the ongoing season of the IPL. He has amassed 548 runs in 12 matches this season at a strike rate of 145.35. His good show has ensured RCB make it to the playoff. RCB have won eight out of 13 matches and are currently in the third spot with a game still to go. RCB happen to be one of the few franchises that are yet to win the IPL silverware and Kohli would be determined to create history in 2025.
