Kohli had scored 143 at the close of play, which also marked his 12th Test century, as India reached 302/4. He had shared a 105-run stand for the third wicket with the opener Shikhar Dhawan (84) and was rarely seen beaten in the 197 balls he had faced, he scored freely on both sides of the wicket with a rich array of strokes.
With this the India Test captain has also achieved another milestone by now reaching 3000-run mark in Test cricket. Former India cricketers and his fans took to twitter to congratulate Virat Kohli after he notched up his hundred.
