India’s star batsman, Virat Kohli, celebrated his 35th birthday with a remarkable achievement, equaling Sachin Tendulkar’s record of 49 one-day international centuries.

Kohli achieved this milestone in a World Cup match against South Africa at Kolkata’s Eden Gardens, scoring a century off 119 balls, including 10 fours. Remarkably, he reached this feat in 277 innings, much quicker than Tendulkar’s 438 innings.

Kohli’s unbeaten 101 was pivotal in India’s impressive total of 326-5 in 50 overs, achieved in partnership with Shreyas Iyer (77). This performance came on a challenging pitch, with Kohli and Iyer building a crucial 134-run partnership for the third wicket, following a solid start by captain Rohit Sharma (40). India and South Africa have secured their spots in the semi-finals of this 10-team tournament.
