Virat Kohli retires from Test cricket - 0 views

  •  
    Virat Kohli, famous Indian batsman, has declared his immediate retirement from Test cricket. In 123 Test matches, the former captain of India amassed 9230 runs at an average of 46.85, including 30 hundreds. As cricket moved to three formats and a vibrant franchise ecosystem, Kohli also left as India's most successful Test captain and a passionate champion for the longest format. "It's been 14 years since I first wore the baggy blue in Test cricket," Kohli said on Instagram on Monday, May 12. To be honest, I had no idea the path this format would lead me down. It has put me to the test, molded me, and given me lifelong lessons. "Playing in whites carries a very particular meaning. The long days, the quiet grind, and the little moments that nobody notices but that stick with you forever. It's difficult for me to leave this format, but it feels right. It has returned far more than I could have imagined after I gave it everything I had. "I'm leaving with a heart full of appreciation for the game, the teammates I played with, and everyone who helped me feel like I was seen. "I'll always grin when I think back on my Test career. #269, concluding." Following the retirements of Rohit Sharma and Ravichandran Ashwin, Kohli's decision to leave Test cricket marks a significant change that Indian cricket hasn't seen since the departures of Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman in 2012 and then Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag. Months after being a member of a squad that won the ODI World Cup, Kohli made his Test debut in 2011 against the West Indies at Sabina Park. After a difficult first year of adjusting to the longer format, he settled in in 2012 with a brilliant 116 against Australia in Adelaide, a place that would hold great meaning for him. He returned to the South Australian capital for India's subsequent tour in 2014, where he led the team as a stand-in captain and scored twin hundreds in a close loss. Following MS Dhoni's retirement in Melbourne a few weeks later, Kohl

Chennai Super Kings vs Rajasthan Royals, 62nd Match Prediction - 0 views

  •  
    Match Overview: In Indian Premier League 2025 Match 62, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will play Rajasthan Royals (RR) at Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday, May 20. Interestingly, this is a dead rubber because both teams are now in the bottom two slots of the table and are not in the playoff race. Since this is their final game of the season, CSK will be hoping to finish with back-to-back wins. The five-time winners played in the bottom half of the standings for a large portion of the season and only achieved three wins in 12 games. However, the inclusion of young, gifted players like Dewald Brevis and Ayush Mhatre, who have seized the limited chances that have come their way, has been helpful. RR is playing their last game of the edition in the interim in an attempt to preserve their dignity. The team led by Sanju Samson needs to pull up their socks one last time, especially for their supporters, after losing to the Punjab Kings. The Royals, in particular, are hoping to duplicate their triumph from their last meeting with these two teams. Match Details: Match: Chennai Super Kings vs Rajasthan Royals, Match 62, IPL 2025 Venue: Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi Date & Time (IST): Tuesday, May 20, 7:30 PM Livestreaming: JioHotstar Arun Jaitley Stadium Pitch Report: The slower pitch at Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium is expected to help spinners because of its dry surface and grassy patches. A solid batting track is suggested by the average first-inning score of 216 over the last ten games, even though spinners may be deployed as pitch grips. The winner of the toss chooses to bowl first because dew is likely to be important later in the evening. Batsmen had more opportunities to release their hands, and bowlers went for runs more frequently in the most recent match between DC and GT. Head-to-Head: Matches Played: 30 CSK Won: 16 RR Won: 14 CSK vs RR Probable Playing 11s Chennai Super Kings (CSK): MS Dhoni (w/c), Ravindra Jadeja, Ayush Mhatre, Urvil Patel, Devon Conw
