I remember presenting you with your Test cap in 2013 at Eden Gardens and then standing with you on the balcony of Wankhede Stadium the other day - your journey has been a remarkable one.
From then to now, you have given your best to Indian cricket as a player and as a captain.
Well done, Rohit Sharma, on your Test career, and best wishes for what lies ahead.
