Can Virat Kohli Break Sachin Tendulkar's '100 Centuries' Record? ODI Schedule Paints Grim Picture
If there was one player who was considered worthy of bettering Sachin Tendulkar's record of 100 international hundreds, it was Virat Kohli. When Tendulkar was asked in an award ceremony after hitting his 100th century on who could break his record, he took two names: Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Within a week, both Rohit and Virat retired from the Test format. Kohli, who quit the Test arena on Monday, is still 18 hundreds away from equalling the incredible milestone and now has just one format to play, maybe for a maximum of two years. In an age when the relevance of the 50-over format is a continuous debate, hitting 19 hundreds in ODIs is a humongous task. There is a possibility of Kohli featuring in the ODI World Cup to be held in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia in 2027.
