#MS Dhoni retires from Test Cricket
Mumbai, Dec 30 (IBNS): 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.
Dhoni has chosen to retire from Test Cricket with immediate effect in order to concentrate on ODI and T 20 formats. 
 
BCCI while respecting the decision of Dhoni to retire from Test Cricket, wishes to thank him for his enormous contribution to Test Cricket and the laurels that he has brought to India, a BCCi statement said.
 
Virat Kohli will be the captain of the Indian Team for the Fourth  and Final Test against Australia to be played in Sydney from Jan 6, 2015.
 
Dhoni became the first Indian batsman to complete 10,000 runs or more as captain in international cricket. 
 
An attacking right-handed middle-order batsman and wicket-keeper, he is widely regarded as one of the greatest finishers in limited-overs cricket.
 
He made his ODI debut in December 2004 against Bangladesh, and played his first Test a year later against Sri Lanka.
