Hitman Rohit Sharma and King Kohli have hung up their Test boots, leaving behind legacies forged in fire and grace. My son and I were lucky enough to witness these two legends in action! Kohli's relentless pursuit of over 9320 Test runs, that unwavering intensity, and Rohit's effortless power at the top, including that iconic double hundred - moments etched in our hearts";
He further mentioned, "They made us, and all of India, believe in every session, every fight. Thank you, @ImRo45 and @imVkohli , for the passion, the records, and the indelible mark on Test cricket. We will always be your fans, and India is immensely proud of you both. The roar of your bats will forever echo in the arena of Test cricket. Grateful for the memories. Though their Test journey concludes, we eagerly await their fireworks in the One Day International arena".
