Virat Kohli, known for his fierce competitiveness and unmatched passion for the game, has always been a player who forms strong bonds with his teammates. His leadership and camaraderie have earned him immense respect both on and off the field.

Over the years, Kohli has shared memorable moments with fellow cricketers, and his emotional posts reflect the close-knit relationships he builds within the team. Recently, as his long-time teammate Ravichandran Ashwin announced his retirement, Kohli paid a heartfelt tribute to Ashwin’s incredible career and their shared journey.

With the draw of the Brisbane Test, the illustrious career of India’s legendary spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has come to an end.
