“Thank you for all the memories I’ve shared with you in dressing room & on & off the field since childhood, where we never thought that you would be our captain & I’ll play 100 test matches for India. All we did was just play cricket with all our heart & things worked out well,” Ishant Sharma tweeted.

Ishant Sharma also recalled a conversation from 2017 where Virat Kohli had told him about his desires to win the series outside India.

“I still remember back 2017 in South Africa, where u told me its high time to win series in these countries. Yes, we didn’t win 2017-18 series in Africa, but we went to Australia & beat them in Australia. In England 2017-18 series we lost, but we know as team how close we came,” said Ishant in a tweet.

“So cheers to your most successful Test Captaincy and thanks for the amazing memories as a Captain you have given us,” he added.
