Virat Kohli retires from Test cricket, says will always look back at my Test career with a smile

View Comments Mumbai: Virat Kohli, on Monday, announced that he is retiring from Test cricket, ending a memorable 14-year journey in the format. The 36-year-old shared the news on Instagram, just weeks before India’s five-Test series against England starts on 20 June at Headingley in Leeds. "It’s been 14 years since I first wore the baggy blue in Test cricket. Honestly, I never imagined the journey this format would take me on. It’s tested me, shaped me, and taught me lessons I’ll carry for life. There’s something deeply personal about playing in whites. The quiet grind, the long days, the small moments that no one sees but that stay with you forever, " wrote Kohli. "As I step away from this format, it’s not easy — but it feels right. I’ve given it everything I had, and it’s given me […]

From NDA Dreams to India Blues: The Rise of Jitesh Sharma and the Mentor Who Believed

View Comments Bengaluru: Cricket wasn’t the dream. Not even a fleeting thought. For Jitesh Sharma, the plan was set — join the NDA, serve in the Air Force, wear a different kind of uniform. But fate, as it often does in sport, had other ideas. “I was in 10th standard. I wanted to go for NDA. One day, a friend said, ‘Let’s do a cricket trial. We’ll get 4 percent extra marks,’” Jitesh recalls with a smile. At that moment, cricket was just a means to an academic end. But when he noticed ‘wicketkeeper’ had the fewest names on the registration list, Jitesh — along with two friends — casually chose it. And unknowingly, chose a future. Today, Jitesh Sharma stands tall not just as a dependable wicketkeeper-batsman, but as a beacon of belief for his hometown of Amravati. “I […]
