Virat Kohli hits 27th ODI ton; Jadhav completes second; India 262/4

Pune: Virat Kohli slammed his 27th century in One Day Internationals (ODIs) by smashing a six straight down the ground, taking India closer to the mammoth 351-run target set by visiting England team here at Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium on Sunday.

Till 36th overs of India's innings, Kohli was unbeaten at 122 runs off 104 balls with 8 fours and 5 sixes, while Kedar Jadhav also completed his second ODI ton in just 65 balls, hitting 11 fours and 2 sixes.

Kohli adds another feather to his cap by matching Sachin Tendulkar's record with his 17th ODI ton while chasing.

Noticeably, in his last 14 ODI innings, Kohli has 10 fifty-plus scores.

Before this match, he, however, had a very poor batting average of 16.9 while playing against England.
