Kohli scores 28th century in test against Australia
India`s prolific batsman Virat Kohli notched up his 28th Test hundred on March 12 in Ahmedabad. The former Indian captain ended the drought of tons in the longest format of the game with a century against Australia in the first innings of the fourth day of the final Test of the four-match series. The last century by Virat Kohli in Test cricket came against Bangladesh in 2019. Since then, it took him 41 innings to bring up the 28th. Virat got to three figures in the post-lunch session as he clipped Nathan Lyon toward a deep square leg and took a single to bring the magical three-figure mark. Kohli`s celebration, which is usually full of energy, was totally different this time. He removed his helmet and kissed the ring he wore on his chain while batting. He raised his bat and on other hand, his teammates gave him a standing ovation as the moment was so special. The wait was finally over for Kohli in the longer format. It was also his 8th hundred against Australia which helped him equal the long-standing record of Indian batting legend Sunil Gavaskar. Kohli stands third on the list of most Test Hundreds against Australia with 8 triple figures in 24 matches. Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar leads the list with 11 centuries against the Aussies.
