Kohli equals Sachin’s record with 49th ODI ton

Batting virtuoso Virat Kohli on Sunday slammed a record-equalling 49th one-day international century as he drew level with legendary Sachin Tendulkar for most tons in the format. Firing the long-awaited ton, Kohli got to three-figure mark off balls as his hundred was laced with 10 boundaries. Kohli’s century came against South Africa at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata in India’s eighth game of the ODI World Cup.
