Dhawan recalled how Kohli, being his energetic self, celebrated the moment with celebration – to stand in every joy from the dressing room, jump, clap, whistle and soak.“I scored 187 runs in that match. When I reached my centenary, Virat came out of the dressing room to make me happy. He really enjoyed the century. When I went back to the dressing room, he played a Punjabi songs loudly, and we kept celebrating,” Shikhar Dhawan told Timesophendia Dot Cum in a special interview.Kohli’s sudden retirement from the tests on Monday did not tear the fans-it also shocked Dhawan. They believe that Kohli still had a lot Test cricket Left in it. Given his highest fitness, tireless hunger for runs, and passion to win, Dhawan feels that Kohli could enjoy the rigor and awards of red ball cricket for a while.Dhawan said, “I completely believe that he could continue to play red-ball cricket because he is physically fit. But he started quite quickly, and mentally, only he knows whether he wanted to play or not,” said Dhawan.“Sometimes a player may be physically fit, but does not feel it mentally. Virat is the only person who can answer it, and I am sure that he must have decided after a lot of consideration. He always treated test cricket above any other format. So, he must have given it a lot of consideration before making this big decision.”

For Dhawan, who has seen Kohli from close quarters and has seen him growing in height, he would remember his friend for the infectious energy he brought.Dhawan recalled, “Kohli was always ready for fun – cracking the jokes, copying the teammates, and not even remembering a moment to lighten the mood,” Dhawan remembered.“He is very energetic, so it was always a lot of fun and laughter – pulling each other’s feet was a regular thing. He really enjoys imitating others, impresses – he is very good in it. “It is copying how a person walks or mimics someone’s voice such as Ishant Sharma – we have seen that side. Our understanding matches well, so we shared a lot of laughter together. All these are really good memories,” Southpow said.After 123 tests, 9,230 runs, 30 centuries, 31 fifties, and an impressive average of 46.85, Kohli took on social media and retired with a simple message: “#269, Signing of.” He went as India’s fourth largest run-scorer in Test cricket history, only Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, and Sunil Gavaskar-a heritage, glory, and a red-ball-carried a legacy that he loved. Therefore, when Virat made Virat so special, Dhawan talked about his mindset, discipline and unwavering hunger for success.Who is that IPL player?“I have seen Virat since my childhood, and were always hungry to do something big, to become great, to become number one in my way.“From there, the way he moved forward … even when he was not completely successful, his mindset remained that he would perform well, move forward for the country. She was always there for progress. And with that hunger, she took his discipline to a new level – he became very disciplined. And it was a combination of both that now,” he said.
