The ace batter opted to retire ahead of the 2025-27 World Test Championship (WTC) cycle, which began with the Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy in England. Absolute legend of our game. I’ll never forget our first game against each other when we were young. I thought this guy was a serious competitor and going to be great, someone everyone would admire. You had to fill the shoes of some great players to ever play for India and carry the nation. Wow, did you not disappoint? Thank you for being you, which got the best out of all of us who competed against you. Enjoy the time now away from the whites. Enjoy the extra family time," David Warner had posted on Instagram after Virat Kohli announced his Test retirement in May 2025.
