Virat Kohli Scores Another Century
Team India skipper Virat Kohli really has a penchant for breaking records. During the last ODI match against West Indies, the team captain wowed the audience at Trinidad after he scored his 43rd ODI century. Now, Kohli is recorded as the first player to smash three centuries in three consecutive ODI matches. The live cricket score from the last ODI match was India 256/4, West Indies: 240/7.
He is also the first batsman to score 20,000 international runs in a single decade. All in all, he has completed 20,502 runs in all formats. Former cricketer Sourav Ganguly praises Kohli for his “masterclass” during the last ODI.
“Virat Kohli another master class in one-day cricket @imVkohli @BCCI.. what a player,” said Ganguly in a tweet.
Even cricket legend Vivian Richards said in a comment during match praised Kolhi and said “‘I would have liked to play that shot when I was playing.’
It seems like the team captain is not only impressing the crowd but cricket luminaries as well.
