Virat Kohli- Surging ahead with tons and records

35th hundred before turning 30

Virat Kohli's 35th ODI hundred has come nine months before he turns 30, becoming the youngest one to achieve this feat. With the hundred, the stylish right-hander has gone past the legend Sachin Tendulkar in terms of the number of ODI hundreds scored before turning 30.

By the time Sachin Tendulkar had completed his 30 revolutions around the sun, he had 34 ODI tons in his name. As a mere coincidence, The Little Master's 34th ton came in South Africa itself at Pietermaritzburg, just two months before he turned 30. The knock was a mammoth 152 against Namibia in group stages of the 2003 edition of the World Cup.
