Tue Nov 05 05:58:24 UTC 2024: ## Virat Kohli Celebrates 36th Birthday in India, Skipping London Trip Amidst Form Concerns

**New Delhi, India:** Amidst speculation about a permanent move to London, Indian cricket star Virat Kohli chose to celebrate his 36th birthday in India, staying back after the recent Test series against New Zealand.

Kohli, who has been making frequent trips to London over the past year, opted to spend his birthday with wife Anushka Sharma at his restaurant chain, One8 Commune. The celebration comes after a challenging year for the iconic batsman, marked by a dip in form across all formats, including the recent T20 World Cup victory.

While Kohli’s struggles haven’t gone unnoticed, his inclusion in India’s upcoming tour of Australia has been confirmed. The tour will see the team play five Test matches, a format where Kohli has a strong track record. However, questions linger regarding his future in Test cricket, especially if his form doesn’t improve.

Experts remain hopeful that Kohli can regain his mojo Down Under, but concerns are growing about a potential Test retirement if the star batsman fails to turn the tide. All eyes will be on Kohli’s performance in the upcoming tour of Australia, which could be a defining moment in his career.
