Thank You For Making My Job Easier At 4 Pujji: Kohli's Post For Retired Pujara
World Test Championship: Former India captain Virat Kohli paid an emotional tribute to Cheteshwar Pujara after the veteran batter announced his retirement from all forms of international cricket. Pujara, who last represented India in the 2023 World Test Championship final, brought the curtains down on a celebrated career that saw him amass 7,195 runs in 103 Tests at an average of 43.60, including 19 centuries and 35 half-centuries.
Kohli, who shared some of India’s most memorable Test victories alongside Pujara, took to Instagram stories to express his gratitude. “Thank you for making my job easier at 4 pujji. You’ve had an amazing career. Congratulations and wish you the best for what’s ahead. God bless @cheteshwarpujara,” Kohli wrote.
The pair were central to India’s dominance in Test cricket under Kohli’s captaincy, combining for 3,513 runs in 83 innings together. Their partnership yielded seven century stands and 18 fifty-plus partnerships, often forming the backbone of India’s middle order.
