The Better India

On December 24, 2009, a young Virat Kohli walked onto the pitch at Eden Gardens, carrying the weight of expectations on his shoulders.
India was chasing a daunting 315 against Sri Lanka, and early wickets had put them in trouble.
But alongside Gautam Gambhir, Kohli played a composed and determined knock of 107 off 114 balls—his maiden ODI century, announcing his arrival on the world stage.
Fast forward to February 23, 2025—Kohli, now a seasoned warrior of the game, stood at the crease once again, this time against arch-rivals Pakistan in a high-stakes encounter.
With his 51st ODI century, he became the fastest to every 1,000-run milestone, crossed 14,000 ODI runs, and guided India to yet another dominant victory.
Through every milestone, every challenge, he has proven one thing — 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘯 𝘥𝘰𝘶𝘣𝘵!
