Star India batter Virat Kohli gave the world another reminder of his greatness in white-ball cricket with his enthalling performance against arch-rivals Pakistan in the ICC Champions Trophy group stage match played in Dubai on February 23. During the match, as Kohli needed just four more runs to score his century, it was Rohit Sharma who gestured for the star to hit a final six and reach the milestone.
After scoring a final four, Captain Sharma was all smiles and looked even even happier than Kohli as he clapped for his powerful 100 , leading India to victory against Pakistan. With this century, the former India captain also became the third cricketer, and the quickest in the world, to complete 14,000 runs in ODIs.”
‘Virat loves representing the country’
Following the match, Rohit spoke on Virat’s century and said, “Virat loves representing the country, doing what he does the best, which is what he did today. People sitting inside the dressing room are not surprised with what he did.”
