The Indian Pacific Mukesh Kumar shocked everyone walking in the field with Jersey number 18 during the first unofficial test match between India A and the lions of England in Canterbury. He has caused a great drama among fans on social media, as this legendary number of sweater has been part of the Kohli virating identity throughout his glorious career.
The fans were furious and emotional, accusing the Cricket Control Board in India (BCCI) of being too fast to deliver the iconic number after the recent retirement of Kohli from the test cricket. For fans, sweater no. 18 It is more than a number, since it has become synonymous with Kohli’s struggle, aggressive mentality, greatness, passion and unmatched commitment to play.
Fans left smoking as Mukesh Kumar wears the Kohli Virat 18
As soon as the images of Mukesh Kumar who carried the number 18 became viral, the fans expressed their anger. Many demanded that the BCCI remove the Kohli Virati Jersey 18 of the test cricket for its immense contribution to the traditional format of the game.
Your daily dose of cricket!

From now on, the BCCI has not published any official statement on whether the Kohli Virati sweater number will be withdrawn or if other players will be allowed to take it to the tests. However, the BCCI had previously removed Jersey’s numbers from Sachin Tendulkar and Ms. Dhoni 10 and 7, respectively, as a tribute to his contribution to the Indian Cricket.
However, Kohli has not withdrawn from the hatred, so it is very unlikely that the old Indian captain’s sweater number will be withdrawn at any time by the BCCI.
It is then shown how fans react to the return of number 18 to Indian whites:

As it can be contempt, even Shardul carried Sachin’s number 10. That time, the fans of the fans base said they cannot be withdrawn, it may be their favorite and all, if you go to withdraw all the numbers, there will be no number to be taken in the future after 20-30 years

Why? The Indian cricket has not removed this number of sweater. And how is a contempt? Kohli’s identity is his game and not a number. May someone take him. Nothing touches Kohli’s legacy.

I don’t know why the cricket team does not make “jersey retirement” like NBA or MLB. It only makes sense to honor the legends of the game. 18, 10, 7 should never return as a sign of respect.

If the 18 -year -old sweater is not retired, it will be the discredit of Kohli’s size and career. These BCCI clowns deserve a fall as soon as possible. Shame on BCCI 🤡. pic.twitter.com/lqtxoy7T2C

Kohli’s emotional bond with Jersey 18
Above all, the Kohli Jersey 18 has a very special place in his heart. It is not just a number for him, but also has personal and professional connections.
The former Captain of the Indian Cricket team made his international debut on August 18 and, unfortunately, also lost his father on December 18, 2006. Thus, the number 18 is near the Kohli Choir, and has participated in the number since he made his debut in India.

Monty Panesar drop a bomb in the Kohli shot test
In the meantime, the ex -England Filler, Monty Panesar, has stated in a surprising way that Virated Kohli retired from the test cricket to jump the England tour.
With India, who played a series of five-game tests against England, from June 20, Panesar said that Kohli could have retired due to worries about form and pressure.
Hindustan Times said that Monty Panesar said, “I thought I was going to play. Everyone, including England, was hoping to be part of the series. I am surprised to have taken away.”
Above all, Kohli will see the action in the final IPL 2025 on June 3 at the Narendra Stadium Modi of Ahmedabad. RCB will face PBKs or MI in the title title. It will be decided after the qualifying round 2 on Sunday, June 1 in Ahmedabad between PBKs and me.
