Virat Kohli is the result of retirement border-gavaskar trophy flop show? A look at his final test series

Virat Kohli had been speculating about the future of the red ball for months and now, it has finally ended. The 36 -year -old Indian cricket icon has officially announced its retirement from Test cricket, marking the end of an era that dominated one of the modern great people with unmatched passion and intensity for the longest time of sports. Kohli’s last chapter in Test Whites was played away from home during a devastating border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia. Once the land of his victory and change, Australia became a background of a painful farewell. His last innings was the only way to dismiss, after chasing another delivery outside the off-stump from Scott Bolland. Virat has seen all this in Australia, from age to age, muscle memory and dominance for helplessness against the forces of time.
It was in Australia, where Kohli first led a young manic scoring in Red-Ball Arena, facing sled, and leading India to a historic series victory, but a lot of his rise will script his downfall.
While Kohli dazed in the ongoing Indian Premier League and played an important role in India’s recent ICC Champions Trophy win, directed the team for its second white-ball trophy in less than a year.
Here is a timidline of Virat’s Australia tourism:
2011-12: A 23 -year -old, for the first time, went to the Australian coast, which was with immense investigation on him. After a disastrous Test debut at Caribbean, after scoring just 202 runs in four matches against the West Indies with two promising half-centuries at home, Australia’s tour was a make-or-break opportunity for a young Virat, surrounded by Sachin Tendulkar, VVS Lakesman, Rahul Drawin, and Veering Sehwag.
After scoring just 32 runs in four innings of the first two matches, Virat’s luck took a turn for better in Perth, where he managed a score of 44 and 75. Finally, in Adelaide, Ben Hilfenhus, Ryan Harris, Peter Siddal, Nathan Leone came to his first Test ton. While the other senior 4–0 could not even touch the 300-run mark in a embarrassing clean sweep, later Virat’s batting in half was a very positive because he touched the 300-run mark, which proved his ability to the hard Australian conditions, where pace, bounce, movement, and trademark Australian Australian aggression came in the plainte.
2014-15: The visit to Australia came when India was in a transitional stage, in which MS Dhoni left it from the format after poor foreign results. After a pathetic show with just 134 runs in 10 innings in England, where he was played with James Anderson and Stuart Broad’s swing and seam, not many people hoped that Virat was expected to give a good campaign in Australia, doubling his number alone from the previous tour.
During the first Adelaide test, where he led in the absence of an injured Dhoni, who rushed to Virat’s head with a bumper of Mitchell Johnson during the first Adelaide Test, awakening a rockstar, who dominated the bowlers regularly for the next five-service years. From his twin tons master class in Adelaide, who almost won the match for the New Year Test Classic in Sydney, where he took over as a full -time Test captain, Virat pulled, cut, chopped, bowled bowlers with fearlessness, square and turbulence, which earned him the honor of cricket purists worldwide. 86.50, with 692 runs in four matches of four centuries and fifty, he not only scored the top in the series, but also set a record of most runs scored by an Indian during a series in South Africa, England, New Zealand and South Africa (Army) regions, where a measured rod is considered for an Assyne player.
2018: After two successful tourism with the bat in England and South Africa, which made some more spectacular knock in his catalog, Virat, itching to win his first series in army countries as a captain, came to Australia with the aim of winning in Australia and to present Australia. This was a powerful, all-round Indian line-up, defeated Australia 2–1. Virat scored 282 runs in four matches and on an average of seven innings of 40.29, one century and one century. His knocking at 123 in Perth is considered one of the best knock in Australia by an Indian on a green wicket against a world-class line-up of Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazelwood, and Nathan Leone.
2020-21: During this time, Virat came to the coasts as the best all-format batsman, who were ready to deal with the new challenges faced with paternity. His only match during the tour was the first Adelaide Test. While he played a 74 patient on a test wicket, his side of getting out for 36 in the second innings is considered one of the most humiliating moments in Indian cricket. Virat returned home after an abusive loss to take care of his wife and actress Anushka Sharma, with 78 runs under his belt in two innings. Since then, Rahane played his role and inspired India to an inspirational victory, with inexperience, injuries, racism and a complete power Australian side.
2024-25: This series saw Virat in his weakest and weak. After a nice century in Perth, fans received their hopes for a return series against their favorite rival. But amidst the possibility of an all-time and a poor chain, Pacer Scott Bolland stood, who decided to eat with a senior batsman, dismissed them four times and took full advantage of their weakness against the off-stump line outside. Despite his tons, he could score only 190 runs in nine innings at an average of 23.75. His last image in Australia was taking herself to herself, while slapping his bat aggressively on the ground, he made a long walk in the pavilion.
