Virat Kohli turned heads at Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport on Saturday, marking his first public appearance since the abrupt suspension of IPL 2025. While the cricketer returned to his home, fans are now worried about the latest Test retirement rumours that are buzzing up the internet.

Spotted by the paparazzi, Virat Kohli who departed the team camp amid the league’s potential week-long hiatus, opted for a relaxed yet polished look for the airport look.

Kohli sported a bottle-green cap from his lifestyle brand One8, paired with sleek lar spectacles and a minimalist black oversized t-shirt. His low-key ensemble, blending comfort with signature sophistication caught media attention and love from fans alike.

Nevertheless, for the unaware, reports suggest Virat Kohli is set to retire from Test cricket, with the veteran batter reportedly informing the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) of his decision ahead of India’s upcoming tour of England.

Will Kohli Retire From Tests?

Widely celebrated as one of India’s greatest-ever batters, Kohli has amassed 9,230 runs in 123 Tests at an impressive average of 46.85. His dominance at the No. 4 position has been pivotal for India, contributing 7,564 runs, including 26 centuries, to solidify his legacy as the backbone of the team’s batting lineup.

His potential retirement would leave a significant gap in India’s Test setup, raising urgent questions about succession plans. However, the rumours haven't been addressed yet and while clouds of uncertainty loom, Kohli is yet to comment on any of these claims.

Moreover, the IPL’s suspension, triggered by security concerns amid geopolitical tensions, has left players and franchises in limbo. Kohli’s airport appearance not only fueled fashion chatter but also amplified curiosity about how stars are navigating the unexpected break.
