BCCI issued a statement saying “One of India’s greatest Test Captains under whose leadership India became the No.1 team in the Test Rankings MS Dhoni, has decided to retire from Test Cricket citing the strain of playing all formats of cricket.”

Virat Kohli, India’s vice-captain will lead India in the ongoing Border Gavaskar Trophy. Virat will captain India in Sydney Test starting from 6th Jan 2015. Also, MS Dhoni will continue to lead India in ODIs and T20s.
