RCB Fans All Set to Pay Special Tribute for Kohli in IPL 2025 After His Test Retirement
Following Virat Kohli’s retirement from Test cricket after 123 matches and 9,230 runs, RCB fans plan to wear Test whites during the May 17 clash against KKR in Bengaluru. Kohli, who averages 46.85 in Tests, continues to shine in IPL 2025 with over 500 runs at 63.12 from 11 matches.
For the upcoming IPL 2025 clash between Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on May 17 at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, RCB fans are preparing a special tribute for Virat Kohli. Following Kohli’s retirement from Test cricket on May 12 after 123 matches and 9,230 runs at an average of 46.85, fans have planned to wear India’s iconic Test whites to honour his red-ball legacy. This unique gesture aims to acknowledge Kohli’s remarkable contributions as India’s most successful Test captain.
The tribute comes at an emotional moment, as Kohli announced his retirement shortly after the IPL was suspended due to security concerns. Despite stepping away from Tests, the 36-year-old continues to play ODIs and aims to feature in the 2027 World Cup in South Africa.
In IPL 2025, Kohli remains in peak form, scoring over 500 runs across 11 matches at an impressive average of 63.12. While the reason behind his red-ball exit might be linked to a recent dip in form, Kohli remains a vital figure in Indian cricket. His legacy is being celebrated not just in statistics but in the hearts of fans who continue to support him passionately.
