In Test match cricket, Kohli has hit 12 tons and 12 fifties so far. The hundred against the WI is Kohli’s fifth as Test captain. Kohli has scored tons in Australia and Sri Lanka while as captain. It has taken Kohli only 20 innings to score his last 1000 runs. This superb run of form for Kohli continues after an unprecedented 973 runs, including four centuries in the 9th edition of IPL. Kohli is the third Indian captain to score a century in West Indies after Kapil Dev and Rahul Dravid. And this is what one of the greatest cricketer Viv Richards had to say about after Virat’s ton. “When he last toured West Indies, he was a rookie. But now he has grown into a man. That was a marvellous ton.
