Virat Kohli continued his impressive form in Cricket World Cup 2023 with an unbeaten century against South Africa in Kolkata on Sunday.
With the century, Kohli equaled Sachin Tendulkar’s feat of 49 ODI centuries.
Kohli walked into bat at number three after Rohit Sharma’s dismissal in the sixth over, and although his partnership with Shubman Gill was short-lived, Kohli would go on to forge a 134-run stand with Shreyas Iyer for the third wicket.
