India’s South Africa tour was exceptionally good for Indian skipper Virat Kohli. The Delhi lad had broken many records, including Sourav Ganguly’s maximum number of centuries in International cricket as a captain.
In the recently concluded tour, Virat accumulated 871 runs in which he scored four centuries and two fifties. With the help of his four tons in the rainbow nation, Virat has now scored 35 centuries in ODI and 21 tons in Test.
