Virat Kohli Hits Blistering Century, Becomes Fastest to 16,000 List-A Runs

Virat Kohli marked his return to domestic cricket with a commanding century for Delhi in the Vijay Hazare Trophy opener against Andhra Pradesh in Bengaluru. The legendary batsman scored a blistering 131 runs off 101 balls, guiding Delhi to a crucial victory. This performance was not just a display of class but also a historic milestone, as Kohli became the fastest player globally to reach 16,000 runs in List A cricket, further cementing his status among the game's elite.

Kohli’s participation, mandated by the BCCI for centrally contracted players, alongside Rohit Sharma’s simultaneous century, has injected significant excitement into India’s premier domestic one-day tournament. Despite the frustration among fans over the limited live coverage of these high-profile matches, Kohli’s dominant form signals his readiness for the upcoming international schedule, proving once again that his hunger for runs remains undiminished.
