Former Indian opener Virender Sehwag believes Virat Kohli retired from Test cricket prematurely. Despite a dip in form, Sehwag highlights Kohli's unmatched fitness and dedication, asserting that at 36, he surpasses 90% of players in physical condition. Sehwag emphasizes Kohli's unwavering routine and hunger for runs, suggesting he could have comfortably played for two more years. Kohli concluded his Test career with 123 matches, narrowly missing the 10,000-run milestone. A planned felicitation at Chinnaswamy Stadium was postponed due to rain. Sehwag's remarks underscore the sentiment that Kohli's early retirement leaves a significant void in Indian cricket. (PC: Getty Images & India)
