India captain Virat Kohli on Wednesday hammered 🐽yet another one-day international hundred in the third match against South 🦹Africa in Newlands, Cape Town.
Kohli, who had hit a century in the first match in Kingsmead Durban, continued with his scoring spree to notch up his 34th ODI ton as India look to take an unbeatable lead in the six-match series. With this century, Kohli has now scored maximum ODI tons as captain for India. He surpassed Sourav Ganguly’s previous record of 11.
Kohli reached to his century off 119 balls and his knock was studded with 7 fours. He reached the milestone in the 40th overᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ off JP Duminy with a tuck into the leg-side and soaked in the applause of the crowd.
Twitter was absolutely stunned to witness the cไonsistency of Virat Kohli and hailed him fo🥀r the umpteenth time in his career.
