In his original post, Yadav wrote:
"Had marks been the sole factor, the entire nation wouldn't be rallying behind him now. Passion and Dedication are the key."
Virat Kohli retires from Test cricket after 14 years
The sentiment resonated widely. As one user aptly commented,
"Marks are merely numbers on a sheet – true value lies in perseverance and dedication."
Quiz:
Who's that IPL player?
Kohli, who recently retired from Test cricket after a 14-year run that saw him amass 9230 runs in 123 matches, continues to inspire not only through his sporting achievements but through his journey from a Delhi schoolboy to a global cricketing icon.
With CBSE now adopting a 'Relative Grading' system to reduce stress and over-competition among students, Kohli's resurfacing marksheet serves as a powerful example that one's career and character are not defined by early report cards but by what comes after.

WTC Final Preview: South Africa look to end ICC trophy curse but Australia stand in their way
South Africa face Australia in WTC final at Lord's, another chance at winning an ICC trophy, which is coming after 25 years following the Birmingham heartbreak against the same side. Can the Proteas finally end their ICC trophy drought? read more June 17, 1999, Birmingham. World Cup semi-final. One run needed off four balls. Lance Klusener, batting like a dream, has Australia at his mercy, and has reduced them to prayers. This South African team, if they get over the line, will be remembered forever. Winning seems the easier gig too. But South Africa fluff their lines, floundering and quite literally, falling short, with Allan Donald and Klusener resembling cats on a hot tin roof. And that one run, which could be sensed, felt and perhaps even be touched, floats away into the English horizon. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD South Africa face a familiar foe at Lord's South Africa , at the cost of a cliché, are perhaps still rummaging for it. They have availed the services of countless world-class players in that pursuit, but it remains elusive, and the Proteas, since that dreaded day in Birmingham, have NOT won an ICC trophy. Over the next few days, that could change. Those wounds will not heal completely, although South Africa, by virtue of having yet another tilt at the big prize, can strap bandages over it and replace that stinging feeling with something more soothing. But as fate would have it, their road to redemption is blocked by…Australia. The defending champions may have lost the odd game at home and may have looked a little vulnerable on their most-recent Ashes adventure. But there is no denying their quality or pedigree of winning the moments that matter. Prior to the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at the turn of the year, Australia knew they needed a string of wins to confirm their spot in the World Test Championship (WTC) final. Despite losing at Perth to India, which led to all sorts of questions and criticisms, they ultimately did it at a canter - beating India 3-1 and then blanking Sri Lanka 2-0, away from home. Their bowlers have been the bedrock of their surge to the final. Captain Pat Cummins has 73 wickets (the second-most this cycle, only behind Jasprit Bumrah), with Mitchell Starc and Nathan Lyon bagging 72 and 66, respectively. Josh Hazlewood has featured less prominently due to injuries, but remains an out-and-out match-winner across formats. The batting department's numbers may not be as eye-catching, but Steve Smith, Travis Head and Usman Khawaja have more than 1100 runs each, with Alex Carey and Marnus Labuschagne also scoring more than 900 runs this cycle. They will, however, be put to the sword by South Africa and Kagiso Rabada. Rabada has not played as many Tests as his Australian counterparts in this period, but averages less than 20, having picked up 47 wickets across ten matches, at a strike rate a shade under 38. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD His match-up against Head and Smith, in particular, could be pivotal, given how successful the pair was in the 2023 WTC final. Rabada has a decent record against them too, with Smith averaging 32, having been dismissed four times. Head, meanwhile, strikes at more than 100 against Rabada, but only averages 28, having been dismissed twice. So, if Rabada can get rid of them cheaply, or exert enough pressure for the others to benefit, South Africa will fancy their chances. Especially if Marco Jansen, an exceptional new-ball bowler, can find assistance and Keshav Maharaj can extract turn later in the game. Not to mention that Rabada, after his recent one-month suspension, will also feel he has a point to prove. For that, the Proteas will have to put up runs on the board. Their batters are inexperienced but have shown, in a variety of testing conditions, that they can get the job done. Aiden Markram, David Bedingham, Ryan Rickelton, Tristan Stubbs, Wiaan Mulder and skipper Temba Bavuma have all scored centuries this cycle, with Bavuma, Rickelton and Mulder averaging in excess of 50. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD They will have their work cut out against Australia's pace troika and Lyon. But if any of them was looking for validation from the cricketing fraternity, well, this is it. Their opportunity to tell the world they can stand up on the biggest of stages, and that they can shed a reputation the Proteas have notoriously become synonymous with. And so, two and a half decades since being chastened in Birmingham, South Africa will have their shot at salvation. Their chance to exorcize past ghosts and to definitively make it right. At arguably the most iconic venue in the sport, just a hundred miles away from the bone-chilling heartbreak of 1999, but potentially a lifetime and a world apart on the spectrum of emotions. Can South Africa rewrite the script of 1999? South Africa have been here before, and they know better than anyone else that nothing, at this stage, can be taken for granted. But after all the teasing and trembling of yore, especially in front of final frontiers, they will also recognize the need and the necessity for a steely display. All while Australia prance and prowl in their preferred habitat. Therein lies the intrigue of this contest too. The beauty is not in knowing these are two top-drawer teams, but in acknowledging and realizing the baggage one carries, and the aura the other boasts – both of which have, on occasions, come at each other's expense. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD And in this year/season of barren streaks being snapped and of trophy thirsts being quenched, it feels poetic that South Africa, of all possible permutations and combinations, are back in the country where this sequence - of coming close but not ending up with the cigar - began. Face to face with the foe that foiled them more than 25 years ago. History, of course, cannot be tweaked. Nor can it be altered. But this could be a watershed moment in itself. For the present and the future. A game that could define a generation of South African cricketers, and immortalize them. A match that could, considering where it is, and given who it is against, inject so much belief into Protean veins that they will feel they have the world at their feet, all over again. That was what that afternoon in Birmingham was meant and supposed to be. And that, South Africa will hope, is what these next few days in London are. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD

Rishabh Pant breaks Lord's roof with monstrous six, shows pulsating trailer before India vs England Test series
The Shubman Gill-led India have arrived in the UK and the 18-member squad has begun its training in full swing for the upcoming five-match Test series against England, beginning June 20 in Headingley, Leeds. The squad, which is minus Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma due to their Test retirements, started preparing for the high-octane series last week. India are currently based in London and have been training at the Lord's Cricket Ground, which is also the venue for the World Test Championship (WTC) final. Rishabh Pant has begun his preparation in full swing and the left-handed batter is leaving no stone unturned in fine-tuning his skills to take on the likes of Chris Woakes and Ben Stokes. During a training session at the Lord's Cricket Ground, Rishabh Pant was seen practising big-hitting against the spinners, and it was then that he showed what he is truly capable of. Off the bowling of Washington Sundar, the left-handed Pant brought out the slog sweep and this ended up breaking the roof of the training ground at the Lord's Cricket Ground. This might be just a trailer for the upcoming India versus England Test series. Pant has a good record in the UK, having smashed two centuries. In the nine matches he has played on English soil, the 27-year-old has scored 556 runs at an average of 32.70. Also Read: Jasprit Bumrah fired up against Shubman Gill; Gautam Gambhir instructs newcomer; Rishabh Pant sledges Mohammed Siraj Speaking of Rishabh Pant, the Lucknow Super Giants captain had a below-par in the IPL, scoring 269 runs in 14 matches. His numbers would have looked abysmal had he not scored a century in the final league stage match against the eventual champions Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). Against Rajat Patidar's side, Pant played an unbeaten knock of 118. However, this knock went in vain as RCB chased the total down. The Indian team will be playing an intra-squad match later this week against India A ahead of the first Test against England. The match is set to begin on June 13. India A recently played out two draws against the England Lions. However, the likes of Karun Nair and KL Rahul impressed one and all and the duo have emerged as the sure-shot starters in the playing XI in the first Test. The Test series between India and England will commence on June 20 in Leeds. The action will then move to Birmingham for the second Test. The Lord's Cricket Ground will host the third Test, while Old Trafford and Kennington Oval will host the fourth and fifth Tests of the series, respectively. India squad: Shubman Gill (C), Rishabh Pant (VC & WK), Yashasvi Jaiswal, KL Rahul, Sai Sudharsan, Abhimanyu Easwaran, Karun Nair, Nitish Reddy, Ravindra Jadeja, Dhruv Jurel (WK), Washington Sundar, Shardul Thakur, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohd. Siraj, Prasidh Krishna, Akash Deep, Arshdeep Singh, Kuldeep Yadav.

'RoKo, stop that': Former India cricketer slams clubbing Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli together in Tests; says 'absolutely no comparison'
Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma NEW DELHI: As Team India embarks on a new era in Test cricket without two of its biggest icons — Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma — former cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar has sparked a debate by urging the cricketing community to stop treating the duo as equals in the red-ball format. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Reacting to new Test skipper Shubman Gill 's remark that he will feel the pressure of not having Kohli and Rohit in the England series, Manjrekar took to Instagram to share a candid assessment. Poll Do you agree with Sanjay Manjrekar's view that Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli should not be treated as equals in Test cricket? Yes, they are in different leagues No, they should be compared Not sure It depends on the format 'It stirred up the bee in my bonnet, which has been there for a while. It's not so much about the statement, but the fact that Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli tend to get clubbed together,' he said. The former India batter asserted that while comparisons may be valid in white-ball cricket, Kohli and Rohit are in very different leagues in Test cricket. 'We even have a term for them, RoKo. I can understand it in white-ball cricket… but when it comes to red-ball cricket, there's absolutely no comparison between the two,' he added. Backing his stance with numbers, Manjrekar pointed to Kohli's dominant record in SENA (South Africa, England, New Zealand, Australia) countries. 'Virat Kohli has got 12 hundreds. Rohit Sharma in SENA countries — just the one, against England at The Oval in 2021. He's played over 100 innings and averages 40.' 'And I dare say, had he gone to England, that average would have dropped into the 30s,' he said, before ending with a blunt punchline: 'So, when it comes to red-ball cricket… I say, RoKo, stop that.' Gautam Gambhir sends stern message after Bengaluru tragedy Manjrekar's comments have reignited discussions on India's red-ball legacy and the contrasting impact of two modern giants of Indian cricket.
