NEW DELHI: In the stands of the MCA Stadium in Pune, at homes, in offices, on the street – Indian cricket fans erupted in joy when Virat Kohli completed his century and signalled India’s seven-wicket win over Bangladesh in the ICC World Cup on Thursday.
With a win becoming just a formality towards the end of the India’s run-chase of Bangladesh’s 256/8, the fans were still chewing their nails because the runs needed by Kohli to complete his 48th ODI century and India to complete a victory were near identical.

Kohli (103* off 97 balls) eventually finished it with a six and sparked festivities among the Indian cricket fans around the world.
En route to that century, Kohli also became the fastest to complete 26,000 international runs.
Here’s how his former teammates and fans reacted on social media:

function loadGtagEvents(isGoogleCampaignActive) { if (!isGoogleCampaignActive) { return; } var id = document.getElementById('toi-plus-google-campaign'); if (id) { return; } (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) { t = b.createElement(e); t.async = !0; t.defer = !0; t.src = v; t.id = 'toi-plus-google-campaign'; s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s); })(f, b, e, ' n, t, s); };

function loadSurvicateJs(isSurvicateActive){ if(!isSurvicateActive){ return; }

(function(w) { var s = document.createElement('script'); s.src=" s.async = true; var e = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; e.parentNode.insertBefore(s, e); })(window);

}

window.TimesApps = window.TimesApps || {}; var TimesApps = window.TimesApps; TimesApps.toiPlusEvents = function(config) { var isConfigAvailable = "toiplus_site_settings" in f && "isFBCampaignActive" in f.toiplus_site_settings && "isGoogleCampaignActive" in f.toiplus_site_settings; var isPrimeUser = window.isPrime; if (isConfigAvailable && !isPrimeUser) { loadGtagEvents(f.toiplus_site_settings.isGoogleCampaignActive); loadFBEvents(f.toiplus_site_settings.isFBCampaignActive); loadSurvicateJs(f.toiplus_site_settings.isSurvicateActive); } else { var JarvisUrl=" window.getFromClient(JarvisUrl, function(config){ if (config) { loadGtagEvents(config?.isGoogleCampaignActive); loadFBEvents(config?.isFBCampaignActive); loadSurvicateJs(config?.isSurvicateActive); } }) } }; })( window, document, 'script', );
