Virat Kohli scored his 49th ODI century on his 35th birthday against South Africa in the 2023 Cricket World Cup match in Kolkata. This was a special day for all Indian viewers and his die-hard fans, as they got to see him in a cool and calm new role. He has now equaled Sachin Tendulkar’s record for the most ODI centuries.

Kohli’s century was a masterclass in batting. He paced his innings perfectly and played some exquisite shots. He was particularly severe on the South African bowlers through the off-side. He reached his century in style, with a six over long-on.

Kohli’s century was all the more special because it came on his birthday. He had been under a lot of pressure in recent months, but he responded with a magnificent innings.
