BGT 2024-25: Virat Kohli Hits 30th Test Hundred As India Set A Target Of 534 For Australia
Despite Washington Sundar: Talismanic batter Virat Kohli smashed his 30th Test hundred – and the first of this year – as India set Australia a target of 534 runs to chase after declaring their second innings at 487/6 in 134.3 overs on Day Three of the first Test at Perth Stadium here on Sunday.
Kohli's unbeaten century came off 143 balls and was laced with eight fours and two sixes. In front of a vociferous crowd which included his actor-producer wife Anushka Sharma, Kohli feasted on a tired bowling line-up to bring up his seventh Test hundred on Australian soil and draw level with Walter Hammond.
Kohli’s brilliant hundred was the perfect icing on the cake for India after opener Yashasvi Jaiswal put the visitors in the driver's seat with a brilliant 161. The final session began with Kohli getting a thick inside edge off Cummins going for four and was followed by taking three runs off him to get his fifty.
