Centurion: Indian captain Virat Kohli is undoubtedly the greatest batsman of the current era and he keeps proving the fact every now and then. Once again, he has authenticated the tag of 'run-machine' by smashing his 35th ODI hundred in the sixth match against South Africa at the SuperSport Park here on Friday.
He only took 82 balls to smash the fourth century on the South Africa tour and third in the six-match One-Day International (ODI) series.
Kohli scored 17 boundaries and reached to his hundred with a cracking four straight down the ground off the bowling of Imran Tahir.
