'I Wasn't Happy When Virat Retired From Test Cricket': Kapil Dev On Kohli's Shock Decision
Kapil Dev: Former India captain Kapil Dev admitted he was 'not happy' with Virat Kohli's decision to retire from Test cricket, saying the batting great still possessed the ability to succeed in the longest format and could have fought his way back into the side if required.
Kohli announced his retirement from Test cricket in May 2025, bringing the curtain down on a glittering 14-year red-ball career in which he scored 9,230 runs in 123 Tests, including 30 centuries. India's most successful Test captain with 40 wins in 68 matches, Kohli stepped away from the format ahead of the England tour, saying he had "given everything" to Test cricket.
Reflecting on Kohli's decision, Kapil said he would have preferred the former India captain to continue playing.
