Why is Kohli's 500th game important? What does Kohli define or represent? Kohli represents a lot of discipline, dedication and devotion, the way he has played this game. The three Ds are standing tall and it is for everyone to see.""Whenever he steps on the ground, it seems like he is going to give his 100%," Chopra added. "There is not even one thing where he will leave a stone unturned. He doesn't do even one job where you feel that he is taking things slightly lightly."Aakash Chopra further stated that everyone wants Kohli to score a century on this special occasion given that he hasn't scored a hundred away from home in five years."From the bottom of our hearts, we want him to score a century because it's been half a decade and he hasn't scored a century away from home but it doesn't matter even if it doesn't come. It doesn't make him a lesser player," Chopra concluded. Do you think Virat Kohli can overtake Sachin Tendulkar and become the most-capped Indian player? Sound off in the comments section.
