“Wanted to contribute to team…”: Virat Kohli speaks on scoring his century in Perth

When batting at Perth, even during a moment of self-gratification, the priority for Kohli was the team.

Virat Kohli showed fluency as he hit his 30th Test century, which took him over the tally of incomparable sir Donald Bradman. It was also the most significant and memorable knocks in a magnificent career, especially since it was in the final chapter of the game.

Kohli made an unbeaten score of 100 against Australia in Perth. This was his first century after his score of 121 against West Indies in July 2023. Since then, Kohli has not been able to take his score to the triple-digit mark.

This fall in performance is a massive fall for someone who used to strike centuries for fun, and the star batter was also a befuddled batter in turners at home grounds.

When batting at Perth, even during a moment of self-gratification, the priority for Kohli was the team.

“What goes on in the head when you don’t play well, you make a few mistakes after getting yourself in.”

“I just wanted to contribute to the team’s cause, I don’t want to hang around just for the sake of it,” Kohli told the broadcaster.
