India captain Virat Kohli on Wednesday described Ambati Rayudu as ‘a top man’ after the middle-order batsman, who was ignored for the ongoing World Cup, retired from all forms of cricket. You’re a top man 👊🙂👏@RayuduAmbati — Virat Kohli (@imVkohli) July 3, 2019https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.jsSnubbed twice over for the ongoing World Cup, Rayudu Wednesday retired from all forms of cricket without specifying his reasons for calling it quits. The player, who could never break into the Test team, was in the spotlight before the World Cup. Declared the preferred No.4 batsman by Kohli not many months ago, Rayudu was ignored for Shankar in India’s final squad for the big event. “Just Ordered a new set of 3d glasses to watch the world cup,” he had tweeted at the time.
