Since winning the Champions Trophy, there has been a continuous question about the future of some senior players of Team India. Captain Rohit Sharma has refused this at the moment, but star batsman Virat Kohli has said nothing clear about it. Fans are worried about the future of these two veterans and now Kohli has increased his restlessness with one of his statements. Kohli has said about his Test career just before the start of the IPL 2025 season that he will not be seen playing in Australia again.
On Saturday 15 March for the 18th season of IPL, Virat Kohli joined his franchise Bangalore. During this, Kohli answered many questions in an event of the franchise. During this time, a question was about his recent form. Virat, who scored more than two hundred runs in the Champions Trophy, failed on a tour of Australia just before that. Only one century came out of his bat, while before that his record in this country was always fantastic.
On this entire tour, Kohli repeatedly continued to be out on the ball outside the off stump, which not only fans, but also the experts shocked and disturbed. In such a situation, when Kohli was questioned about the struggle in batting on that tour, the former Indian captain said, "I might not play again on the tour of Australia, so I am satisfied about what happened in the past." Team India's next tour of Australia is scheduled to be in late 2027.
Kohli's Test career has been questioned since this failure on the tour of Australia. Will he be selected in the team on England tour after IPL? If you are selected, will they take retirement only after this series? These questions are constantly asking media, experts and fans and are also discussing them. But this statement of Kohli has given a new tension to the fans that Kohli should not suddenly announce retirement. However, Kohli would once again want to see Kohli performing brilliantly in Test cricket and will expect to see the rain of his bat in England, so that even if he retires, he will give happy memories to the fans.
