Next to Anushka Sharma, the first task of Virat Kohli after the test retirement is a spiritual.

A day after announcing her retirement from Test Arena, India’s star batter Virat Kohli arrived in Vrindavan with his wife Anushka Sharma on Tuesday. The couple called the famous spiritual leader Premananda Maharaj to seek their blessings in Vrindavan Dham. The couple is known as a follower of Swami Premnand Maharaj and is often seen in Vrindavan. Kohli’s decision to hang his Test boots ended a magnificent 14 -year -old career, which showed that he dominates various circumstances, regions and opponents in the whites, both as a batsman and captain.
In his test career, the 36 -year -old performed 123 in white clothes, scoring an average of 46.85 to score 31 fifty and 254*in 30 centuries and 210 innings. He is India’s fourth largest run-run-goldter, in the format behind Sachin Tendulkar (15,921 runs), Rahul Dravid (13,265 runs), and Sunil Gavaskar (10,122 runs).

Kohli made his Test debut against the West Indies in June 2011. While his first Test tour was a great disappointment with just 76 runs in five innings, a young Virat made a name for himself with some serious, counter -attack in the coming days.
His rise as a test player began in 2012 with his young woman tonne against Australia in Adelaide, when he scored 116 runs in 213 balls. Between 2016 and 2019, Virat had one of the strongest batting prime for a Test cricketer, scoring 4,208 runs in 43 tests of 66.79, with 10 half -centuries in 16 centuries and 69 innings and the best score of 254*.
It also included seven double centuries, which was the highest by a captain in Test cricket history. However, it has not been very good for superstar batsman in the 2020s, which has scored just 2,028 runs in average 39 tests of 30.72, with just three centuries and nine fifty in 69 innings with a fifty.
His number received a great boost in 2023, where he scored 671 runs in eight tests on an average of 55.91, with two centuries and two fifties in 12 innings.
