Kohli ends three-year drought with Test century

Indian legend Virat Kohli has ended an agonising wait of greater than three years to attain his twenty eighth Test century.

Kohli lastly introduced up three figures in opposition to after lunch on day 4 of the fourth Test in opposition to Australia in Ahmedabad.

It was removed from one of many 34-year-old’s most interesting knocks, however will probably be certainly one of his most satisfying after his excessive requirements have slipped in recent times.

Kohli, arguably India’s best batter after Sachin Tendulkar, scored his earlier Test ton in November 2019 when he hit 136 in opposition to Bangladesh.

On Saturday, the right-hander ended a 15-innings run with out making a Test fifty.

It was Kohli’s eighth Test century in opposition to Australia – his most in opposition to any crew – and 14th in India.

He scored simply 111 runs through the first three Tests as all batters struggled on pitches closely favouring spin bowling.

Kohli joined Shubman Gill, broadly recognised in India as his inheritor obvious, in scoring a century for India on this match.
