Kohli’s Test Exit: Nasser Hussain Reveals New Reason Behind Retirement

Lauding Virat Kohli or revolutionising Indian Test cricket with his unmatched “aura, swagger, and passion”, former England captain Nasser Hussain added a fresh angle to the reasons behind the legendary Indian cricketer’s Test retirement when many former cricketers believed he could have carried on for another two years at least. As Kohli bid farewell to the format on Monday, announcing his retirement after a distinguished 14-year journey, Hussain reflected deeply on the massive impact Kohli had on the game.

Hussain, speaking on the Sky Sports Cricket podcast, said, “I have been a massive Virat Kohli fan over the last 14 years – his stats speak for themselves – but he was so much more than that. It was his aura, swagger, and passion. We know Indian cricket fans, and the game means so much to them. They want their captain to show them what it means to the team, and no one embodied that passion for cricket in India more than Kohli.

“He was an unbelievable player. He took India to No. 1 in the world, and they stayed there for about 42 months. He completely changed the way they play cricket. Whoever takes on that mantle has got something to live up to.”

Nasser Hussain’s opinion on why Virat must have retired:

Kohli amassed 30 Test centuries and stood shoulder to shoulder with cricketing giants like Joe Root, Steve Smith, and Kane Williamson – the quartet of which was commonly known as the ‘Fab 4’. During the peak of his powers, Kohli was considered the best among the four batters.

Hussain said it was not acceptable to Kohli to just be a “normal cricketer” and that may have played a part in him deciding to call it quits, just 770 runs shy of 10000 Test runs.

Hussain noted, “He is the ultimate winner, he sees the end goal as a win, and he is desperate for that. Everything for Kohli is about winning. Why do you think he’s so good in run chases? He can’t go on the field and not be a hundred per cent, he can’t ever go: ‘I’ll just do my best today.’ That may have formed part of his retirement decision, he doesn’t want to be a normal cricketer, just doing a little bit here and there. He made India into the force they are today.”

POWER CORRIDORS

Former Vice President Venkaiah Naidu commended Power Corridors as a commendable news magazine, affirming that it not only upholds Media Dharma but also fulfills its societal obligations. Power Corridors, as its name implies, delves into realpolitik—examining the essence of influential circles, unraveling the intricacies of political maneuvers, and exploring the pulse of the state’s affairs. However, it transcends mere power dynamics, encompassing a broader spectrum of issues beyond the confines of Delhi’s elite circles.

For PC, which is published by the Interactive Forum on Indian Economy, not only highlights the issues of the day but also throws up what ought to be the subjects that the country should be debating about. It reports about the plans, strategies, and agendas of politicians and others; it also sets the agenda for the nation.
