The social media discussion about when Kohli will surpass Tendulkar\u2019s 49-ODI century record was sparked by the right-handed batter\u2019s 46th ODI century against Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n
Earlier on Sunday, India defeated Sri Lanka with a record 317-run victory in the third ODI to clean sweep the series, Virat Kohli with an epic 166 not out, scored his third century in the last four innings.<\/p>\n
, Virat Kohli scored his 46th ODI century. Kohli will break Sachin Tendulkar\u2019s record for the most ODI hundreds with four more centuries. Tendulkar had a career total of 49 ODI hundreds, compared to Kohli\u2019s 46.<\/p>\n
As the greatest of all time reached beyond 150 runs and lifted his bat for the third time in the same match, Virat Kohli continued to smash after his 74th century. Virat Kohli finished the game \u201cnot-out,\u201d scoring 166* runs, including 8 sixes, which is the most runs he has ever scored. Virat is typically known for playing over the ropes rather than striking down the ground.<\/p>\n
Fromer Indian opener Sunil Gavaskar predicts that the chase master will surpass Sachin Tendulkar\u2019s record for most ODI centuries. Beginning on January 18, India will play New Zealand in a three-match ODI series before playing three ODIs against Australia. Kohli could very well score four centuries and surpass Tendulkar\u2019s record if he continues in his current form and attitude.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe form that he is in, the way that he is playing right now\u2026now we have three matches against New Zealand and three more against Australia. So we have six ODIs before IPL. And all he needs is his three centuries. The way he is batting right now, why shouldn\u2019t we feel that those three hundreds happen before the IPL,\u201d he said.<\/em><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The social media discussion about when Kohli will surpass Tendulkar\u2019s 49-ODI century record was sparked by the right-handed batter\u2019s 46th\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":250,"featured_media":28228,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[73],"class_list":["post-5264","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cricket","tag-sachin-tendulkar"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5264","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/250"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5264"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5264\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28228"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5264"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5264"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5264"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
