After 1024 days, the moment finally arrived that gave almost every Indian fan goosebumps and made them emotional. Virat Kohli after undergoing a lean phase finally smashed his 71st international hundred. Notably, he scored his last century in 2019 and since then he hasn’t been himself.
Kohli achieved the feat during India’s last game in the Asia Cup 2022 against Afghanistan in Dubai. The right-handed in the absence of skipper Rohit Sharma opened the innings and gave his team a perfect start.

As Indian innings were over, players from the dressing room came down on the ground to congratulate him. However, what caught the attention of many was he met Bhuvneshwar Kumar he told him that he still has some cricket left in him.
“Abhi hai cricket baaki” he said.

“I’ve had many suggestions but I watched by old videos,” says Virat Kohli
As Kohli was struggling to score runs, many fans and pundits gave him a lot of suggestions and advice on how he should approach his game. But he said that he didn’t heed anyone of them and instead watched his old videos. He said:
“I have had many suggestions, lot of advice has come my way; people were telling me I was doing this wrong, that wrong, I picked out all the videos from the best time I had; same initial movement, same approach towards the ball and it was just what was happening inside my head I wasn’t able to explain it to anyone,” he said.
Gautam Gambhir said, "Virat Kohli should bat at 3 in the T20 World Cup".
