Virat Kohli breaks Sachin Tendulkar’s record, fastest to 60 international hundreds

Date:

India skipper Virat Kohli has made it a habit to cross a milestone in every single match he plays. On Sunday against West Indies in the first ODI at Guwahati, Kohli became the fastest cricketer to score 60 international hundreds.

In the process, he broke Sachin Tendulkar’s record, who took 426 innings whereas Kohli reached the landmark in 40 fewer innings. Kohli, who has now scored 36 ODI and 24 Test centuries, is the fifth cricketer to hit 60 international tons.

Kohli, who was eventually dismissed for 140, also equalled another record set by Tendulkar of scoring more than 2,000 international runs in a calendar year for India for a record fifth time.

Apart from Tendulkar & Kohli, Sourav Ganguly (4) and Rahul Dravid (3) are the other two Indian cricketers, who have achieved the feat.
