Sports desk: Virat Kohli has announced his retirement from Test cricket. His decision is believed to be the end of an era in the cricket world. Earlier, Rohit Sharma also said goodbye to Test cricket. Just before the England tour, both these veteran players have retired from Test cricket. Virat and Rohit, who have been the backbone of the Indian Test team for years, have come out of this format to retire such a big reason.

According to sources, Virat Kohli was suggested by BCCI himself to retire from Test cricket. It is being told that the board had told both senior players that if they retire from Test cricket, then their future will be considered in ODIs. It is also being said that if this pressure was not there, Virat and Rohit would not have separated themselves from Test cricket at the moment.

BCCI forced to retire

According to a senior sports journalist, it has been told that the BCCI has not stopped anyone from retiring. Rather, he has said that if we leave the test, you will consider ODI. It has also been revealed that if Virat Kohli had retired from himself after the Australia series, he would have been completely his personal decision, but in the current situation it seems to be more decision taken by the BCCI.
