“Time to Go”: Virat Kohli’s intense conversation with Ravi Shastri before the test retirement, details

Former Indian head coach Ravi Shastri said that on Thursday, Virat Kohli and the latter spoke before his retirement of shock test, that the veteran did not regret his career with his career and that he felt his best in his country. Despite India’s five test rounds in June, Kohli called Curtains in a test career on Monday, May 12th. Kohli finishes as one of the best test holders of the generation, in 9230 running format – the fourth best by an Indian inclination – and the 30 test century.

Kohli and Shastri founded one of the most successful captain-koç duo in the history of Indian Test Cricket, and the second now confirmed reports that the star dough had reached him before he announced his decision to the world.

“I talked to him about it, I think a week ago [his announcement] And his mind was very clear that he gave us everything, ”Shastri said to Sanjana Ganesan in the ICC review.

“There was no regret. There was one or two questions I asked, and this was very clearly mentioned, there was no doubts in his mind ‘yes, time is right’. The mind said it was time to go to his body.”

Kohli is the most successful test captain of India and with 40 wins from 68 tests – in front of the second best MS Dhoni. As a player, Kohli is known for his heartfelt approach to the game, and Shastri believes that such an approach comes with a limit.

“If he decides to do something, he gave 100 percent, it is not easy to match.” He said. “Individually, as a melon, as a player who hit the ball.

“A player does his job, [and] Then sit back. However [with Kohli] When the team goes out, as if he had to buy all the small doors, he has to get all the captures, he has to make all the decisions on the field.

“If so much participation is not listened, if it does not divide how much it wants to play between the formats, it must be burnout.”

Shastri pointed out that the nature of the stars of Kohli, which has been constant eye spheres, will receive a wage and contribute to this burnout.

“He received praise all over the world. He has a greater follower than other crickets in the last decade.” He said. “Whether it was Australia or South Africa, it made people watch the game.

“They were angry because he had the ability to enter the audience’s skin. In the form of celebration, you know that his intensity is like a rash.”

“Not only in the dressing room, but also for people who watched the jack. So he had an infectious personality.”

However, Shastri admitted that he was surprised by Kohli’s decision. “Virat surprised me because I thought it was in the jack of at least three years of test match.” He said.

“But then, when you are mentally angry and cooked, this is what you say to your body. You can be the most suitable man in work. You can be more fit than half of your team in your team, but you are mentally good, then you send a message to the body.

The Shastri-Kohli period has seen some of the most famous achievements in India in the test Arena, including a 22-year drought for a historical first test series in Australia, a series of consecutive wins in the West Indian Islands, and a series of 22 years in Sri Lanka.

The team was also quite competitive in South Africa and the UK, and traditionally, home countries fired on fire under conditions that were not suitable for six continents.

Shastri loans Kohli for a large part.

“When you quit the game, you know and one or two months later, you say, ‘I wish I had done it, I wish I had done it’.

“[Kohli] He did everything. Captain parties won the world cups, won a World Cup under the age of 19 [2008] itself. I mean, there’s nothing to succeed, “he finished.
