Virat Kohli entered the new year with a century against Sri Lanka in the first ODI being played in Guwahati on Tuesday (10 January). The star India batter smashed 113 off 87 balls including 12 fours and a six.
Interestingly, with this century Kohli equalled Sachin Tendulkar’s record of smashing the most ODI tons (20) at home. The Master Blaster had achieved the record in 164 matches, while Kohli took just 102 matches to attain the feat.
Back to back ODI hundreds for @imVkohli 👏👏
