Virat Kohli has been making a mockery of International records in the past 12 months, scoring runs for fun at the International circuit, at and away from home.
Today was just another one of those days for Kohli, pacing his innings to perfection and breaking the back of the South African bowling attack to bring up his 2nd hundred of the series and his 34th in ODI cricket.
For long now Kohli was criticised for being a flat track bully, having scored most of his runs in home conditions. But this series in South Africa has really shown the character and calibre of Kohli as a batsman.
India’s ODI batting heavily revolves around Virat Kohli and he has taken to that responsibility very well, playing the anchor role at number 3.
While we have run out of praise for Kohli, Twitter came up with some interesting ways to praise the genius of Virat Kohli

Unstoppable. Kohli is scoring centuries like he’s turning pages in a book.

@imVkohli‘s relentless hunger for runs and centuries — which is growing with every series — makes for an in-depth case study!

Virat Kohli in his last 6 ODI:
121, 29, 113, 112, 46*, 101*
Only once dismissed without scoring century in his last six ODIs which is insane numbers!
