India’s cricket star Virat Kohli turned 36 on Tuesday, November 5. Known for his fierce determination and record-breaking performances, Kohli received an outpouring of love from fans and fellow cricketers alike. Among the well-wishers was former Indian all-rounder Yuvraj Singh, who sent a message to the right-handed batter on X (formerly Twitter), expressing his heartfelt wishes for Kohli’s future success.

Yuvraj Singh’s message of resilience

Wishing you a very Happy Birthday #KingKohli! The greatest comebacks emerge from our setbacks and the world eagerly looks forward to your solid comeback, You’ve done it in the past and I’m sure you will do it yet again, God bless! Lots of love @imVkohli,” Yuvraj captioned his post.

Yuvraj’s words resonated with fans across the country, emphasizing the challenges Kohli has faced recently and the resilience he has🌊 shown over the years.

Hope for a comeback in the Border-Gavaskar trophy

World Cup winner’s comment, “The greatest comebacks emerge from our setbacks,” seemed to directly refer to Kohli’s struggles in the recent three-match Test series against New Zealand. India suffered a surprising 0-3 defeat at home, with Kohli’s form a particular point of concern. Scoring only 93 runs across three matches with a low average of 15.50, Kohli managed just one half-century, a performance that highlighted the🍸 challenges he currently f🍷aces on the field.

The series loss was a blow to India, and Kohli’s lacklustre performance raised questions about his ability to regain form. Yuvraj’s e🌱ncouragement serves as a reminder of Kohli’s potential to bounce back, as he has done many tim𓆏es in his career.

With the upcoming five-Test match series against Australia, known as the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, commencing on November 22, Kohli has another opportunity to silence critics and demonstrate his skill. The series will be crucial not only for Kohli but also for Team India, who ar✅e preparing for the World Test Championship final.
