NEW DELHI: The wait for the Virat Kohli century in the ongoing ICC World Cup got over on Thursday as the India chasemaster scored his 48th ODI hundred to take the hosts home in style against Bangladesh at MCA stadium in Pune. Kohli also became the fourth batter ever to breach the 26,000 runs mark in international cricket during his unbeaten 103-run knock, off 97 balls.
With the commanding seven-wicket victory, India registered their fourth win on the trot in the tournament. The hosts are now equal on eight points with New Zealand on the points table, but are placed in second spot due to inferior net run rate in comparison to the Kiwis.
