It's a huge surprise, Kohli-Rohit deserved on-field send-off: Kumble

The "quiet" Test retirements of Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma ahead of the tour of England came as a "huge surprise" to legendary spinner and former India captain Anil Kumble, who believes the two senior batters deserved an on-field farewell. Kohli announced his retirement from Test cricket on Monday, bringing the curtains down on an illustrious red-ball career in which he played 123 matches, scoring 9,230 runs at an average of 46.85, including 30 centuries. This was after Rohit decided to step away from the longest format last Thursday. "It is a huge surprise. Two outstanding, great players retiring on the back of few days. I didn't see it coming. It has certainly caught me off guard. I thought he has a few more years left in him, especially at the Test level," Kumble said on Kohli on 'ESPNCricinfo'. "He's playing only the ODI format now. No player leaves with any regret and I am sure he would have thought through this and ultimately it is the player's call." Kumble, who ended as

A rampant Mumbai Indians rode on Rohit Sharma's (70) second consecutive fifty to pulverise a hapless Sunrisers Hyderabad by seven wickets in their Indian Premier League match here on Wednesday. Mumbai Indians' fourth win on the trot, which took them to the third spot from the earlier sixth on the points table, came after SRH posted a below-par 143/8 and Rohit making the most of the perfect batting conditions to score 70 off 46 balls (8x4s, 3x6s).

No room for complacency: Waugh on Rohit's captaincy and Test future

Australia legend Steve Waugh believes under-fire Rohit Sharma can't afford to be "complacent or relax" if he wants to continue serving Indian cricket, including making a call on his captaincy ahead of the upcoming Test series against England. With questions swirling around Rohit's future, Waugh said the decision to lead India must come from the man himself. India will begin their 202527 World Test Championship (WTC) cycle with the England series starting in June. "It is totally up to him," Waugh told PTI. "He is the only one who can solve that problem. He has got to look himself in the mirror and say, do I still want to be captain or play for India? Am I committed? "Am I putting enough time and effort into it? It is a privilege and an honour to play for your country. You can't be complacent or relax," added Waugh, a member of the Laureus World Sports Academy. Rohit, who turns 38 on April 30, has endured a lean run in his last three Test series against Bangladesh, New Zealand, and

It's an unreal feeling to have a stand named after me at Wankhede: Rohit

An emotional India captain Rohit Sharma on Friday recalled his journey from standing outside the Wankhede Stadium as a young player to catch a glimpse of Mumbai Ranji Trophy stars to having a stand named after him at the iconic venue, terming it as an unreal feeling. The Mumbai Cricket Association (MCA) had recently announced naming a stand after India's Test and ODI skipper Rohit along with former captain Ajit Wadekar and former BCCI president and ICC chairman Sharad Pawar. No one dreams of things like this when they are just starting off playing cricket, said Rohit after being announced as the brand ambassador of the third edition of the T20 Mumbai League. Then he took a trip back in time, remembering being a starry-eyed budding player jostling to watch the stars of yesteryears. I still remember those days when I used to stand outside (the) Wankhede Stadium just to enter and watch Mumbai Ranji Trophy team practice; I am talking about 2004 or maybe 2003. We used to finish our U-1
