Astrologer Greenstone Lobo has shed light on the recent retirement wave in Indian cricket, attributing it to cosmic shifts that signal the end of a golden era.
According to Lobo, the retirements of Ravichandran Ashwin , Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma were not coincidental, but astrologically inevitable. “These legends were born in 1986-87 when four powerful cosmic bodies – including Neptune and Uranus – were in their strongest positions,” he said. “That alignment shaped their greatness.”

However, Lobo believes that in 2024-25, Uranus—the key planet for all three—entered a debilitated phase. “It’s like a soldier losing his sword. Once that strength was lost, peak performance was no longer possible,” he explained. “No matter how fit Kohli is, or how motivated Rohit might be, their planetary strengths have faded.”

He dismissed conspiracy theories or forced retirement narratives, insisting that “even if they stayed, they would not deliver at their best anymore.”
Lobo added that India is better prepared than Sri Lanka, who struggled after Jayawardene and Sangakkara retired. Thanks to the IPL , India has a “ready pipeline.” He backed KL Rahul and Shreyas Iyer as natural successors: “Both are astrologically peaking now. Their Neptune and Pluto alignments make them ready to carry the baton for the next decade.”
He even named Rajat Patidar as a left-field option to watch, highlighting his favourable planetary chart.
On a parting note, Lobo urged fans to celebrate the departing greats but move on. “Rohit and Virat’s legacy is eternal. But they’ve entered the sunset phase. Now let the new heroes rise.”
