On his 100th Test, Virat Kohli picks one thing he will teach the next generation

As a cricketer who has played all three formats in a rigorous international schedule, Kohli hoped on Friday that his feat would inspire the “next generation.”

The BCCI honoured Indian cricket’s reigning superstar on Friday in recognition of his historic 100th Test match, the first of which was played at Mohali against Sri Lanka.

Kohli commented after being honoured by Rahul Dravid: : During my 100 games, I played three formats and the IPL, and I can provide future generations with some lessons on today’s cricket with pure form.

The memento was presented by Dravid since bio-bubble restrictions prevented Kohli from receiving a commemorative cap.

Kohli was accompanied by his actress wife, Anushka Sharma, while his brother, Vikas Kohli, was also in the audience.

Arun Dhumal, Sourav Ganguly, Jay Shah, and Rajiv Shukla were all present from the BCCI.

Coach Dravid delivered a passionate speech in which he waxed poetic over his longevity and challenged him to “double it up.”

“I am delighted to be here today. My wife and brother have arrived. Everyone is overjoyed. There’s no doubt that this is a team sport, and without your help, it wouldn’t have been possible.

Kohli said he would also like to thank the BCCI.

Among those who have played 100 Tests for India are Sunil Gavaskar, Dilip Vengsarkar, Kapil Dev, Sachin Tendulkar, Anil Kumble, Rahul Dravid, Sourav Ganguly, VVS Laxman, Virender Sehwag, Harbhajan Singh, and Ishant Sharma.
