New Delhi,UPDATED: Jan 15, 2018 21:03 IST
Virat Kohli smashed his ninth 150-plus score as he struck a sensational century on the third day of the second Test against South Africa at the SuperSport Park, Centurion on Monday.
Kohli paced his innings to perfection to notch up his 21st Test century as he scored 153. Kohli fought a lone battle and was the last Indian batsman to be dismissed as the visitors folded for 307, handing South Africa (335) a crucial 28-run first innings lead.
Kohli compiled his innings superbly, choosing his scoring shots well, and became just the second Indian after Sachin Tendulkar to score two Test centuries on South African soil. Kohli also became the second Asian captain after Tendulkar to score a hundred in South Africa.
He now has 21 Test tons to go with 15 half-centuries, a conversion rate that is only bettered in the game by Don Bradman, who made 29 hundreds and 13 fifties.
