Reacting to the news, millions of fans on social media poured their hearts for the legendary cricketer. One user wrote, "Will not forget — T20 WC; 2007
Trophy- Champions Trophy; 2013
Trophy- Champions League; 2010, 2014
Trophy- IPL; 2010, 2011, 2018
Trophy- Asia Cup, 2010, 2016
Trophy- No. 1 Test ranking, Dec 2009 - June 2011
Trophy- World Cup, 2011" [sic]

The other said, "No media speculations. 
No formal announcements. 
No press Conference 
No grand goodbye game. 
No final speech.
Not even a single clue. Just IGTV video with a classic Hindi song."
