Virat Kohli smashes 71st international century, first in T20Is against Afghanistan at Asia Cup 2022
Indian batting legend Virat Kohli smashed his 71st international century in the Asia Cup encounter against Afghanistan on Thursday after a wait of more than 1000 days for the fan favourite’s hundred.
The fans were waiting for a century in Tests and ODIs, but Kohli has brought up his century in the least expected format at a dominating strike rate of 200.
Kohli scored 122 off 61 deliveries, coming out to open the innings with KL Rahul after Captain Rohit Sharma was rested.
Kohli also registered the highest score in T20Is by an Indian, surpassing Rohit’s 118 that came against Sri Lanka in 2017.
The milestone we’d all been waiting for and here it is!
