Virat Kohli produced a entertaining show during an India vs Pakistan Super Four clash of the Asia Cup 2023 in Colombo on Monday. He peeled off a 47th ODI century that has now left him just two short of the all-time record held by the legendary Sachin Tendulkar.

Thanks to his superlative effort, India stormed to a big 228-run win over Pakistan.

A video is going viral of Kohli entering the ground in his inimitable way.

As the caption sums it up perfectly, “The iconic entry of King Kohli: Collars up, bat twirl and touching the field.”

Kohli strode to the middle while the crowd cheered him.

He tapped Rohit Sharma on the back, as a gesture in appreciation of his captain’s superb knock.

Fans are gushing over Kohli’s entrance with one proclaiming, “King Kohli is the greatest of all time.”

A fan pointed out how Kohli, before entering the ground, touched the turf and then proceeded. He commented on the post, “Yes King Kohli touched the soil and prayed to god, to do best today.”

It was a vintage Kohli hundred that took fans back to the old days of his heydays when the India superstar would peel off centuries for fun.

Quick running between the wickets, converting singles into doubles and scoring at a brisk rate without the assistance of boundaries – Kohli’s innings had it all.

He scored 122 off just 94 balls with nine fours and three sixes and outscored KL Rahul who was at one point of innings way ahead of him.

Despite Rahul’s boundary totals being more, Kohli’s strike rotation helped him a lot as he in no time was scoring more than run-a-ball and shifted gears effortlessly. He then tormented the Pakistani bowlers, smashing them all around while constantly finding the gaps.

For his century, Kohli was also chosen as the player of the match.
