Virat Kohli, the most successful captain in Indian Test cricket history, has announced his retirement.

King Kohli — the captain who successfully led Indian Test cricket…

Virat Kohli played an immense role in taking Test cricket to the next level for Indian fans.

He tops the list of Indian players with the most runs as a Test captain:

1. Virat Kohli – 5,864 runs (Average: 54.80)
2. M.S. Dhoni – 3,454 runs (Average: 40.64)
3. Sunil Gavaskar – 3,449 runs (Average: 50.72)

It might take several more decades for anyone to break King Kohli’s record.

Had he continued as captain a little longer, he may have become the most successful Test captain in the world — he currently holds the fourth spot.

In Test matches, when Virat is on the field, the opposition faces an intensity like fire.
