Talking to media on Tuesday, Delhi Capitals' Head Coach Ricky Ponting explained the team's approach for the game against the Gujarat Giants.
Indian cricket captain Virat Kohli has surpassed yet another milestone in his already illustrious career. As soon as Virat reached a hundred on Saturday in the historic Day-Night Test match at Eden Gardens, Kolkata, he went past former Australian captain Ricky Ponting’s tally of Test hundreds as captain. Both were tied at 19 Test hundreds as captain prior to the match but his hundred has now taken him to 20 hundreds as captain of the Indian Test team.
Second on the list of Most Hundreds as captain
After surpassing Ponting, Kohli now sits at the second position in the list of most hundreds as Test captain. The record for the most hundreds as captain of the national team currently belongs to Graeme Smith who scored as many as 25 Test hundreds as captain of South Africa from 2003-13.
