Virat Kohli took the plaudits for becoming the fastest to reach 14,000 runs in one-day internationals (ODIs) on Sunday but he was also proud of his work in the field after the 36-year-old broke a national record that stood for more than two decades.
Ecstatic and relieved in equal measure after Virat Kohli's heroics against Pakistan in the Champions Trophy, his formative coach Rajkumar Sharma said he is hoping that questions on the star India batter's form will stop now. Kohli slammed his 51st ODI century to play a starring role in his team's crucial six-wicket win over Pakistan on Sunday in Dubai, a result that all but put India in the semifinals. "Ab to nahi poochhoge ki Virat form mein nahi hai?" (I hope, you won't ask me that Virat is not in form)," Sharma told 'PTI Videos'. This was Kohli's first ODI hundred since November 2023. The 36-year-old had been drawing a lot of flak for not scoring enough big knocks in the last couple of years.
Team India's prolific performance against Pakistan in the Champions Trophy Group A match on Sunday saw Virat Kohli steal the spotlight with a hundred. But, Kohli's clinical show with the bat wasn't the only headline-making act in Dubai on Sunday, with all-rounder Hardik Pandya's whopping Rs. 7 crore watch also becoming a talking point on social media. Hardik was influential with the ball for India in the match, picking up two wickets in 8 overs, while conceding just 31 runs. However, it was his fact that made him the center of discussions on social media platforms.
Star India batter Virat Kohli never fails to show his passion and hunger for runs whenever he is up against the arch-rivals Pakistan. The same story continued on Sunday when India took on Pakistan in the Champions Trophy 2025, Group A match in Dubai. Chasing the target of 242, Kohli was at his absolute best as he scored an unbeaten century off 111 balls and propelled India to victory by six wickets. It was Kohli's 51st ODI and 82nd international ton.
LOS ANGELES, United States: Donovan Mitchell scored 33 points to lead the Cleveland Cavaliers to a 129-123 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies in a testy cross-conference NBA clash on Sunday. Ty Jerome scored 26 points off the bench, Evan Mobley added 25 points, 13 rebounds and eight assists and Jarrett Allen scored 13 points with 10 rebounds for Eastern Conference leaders Cleveland. Their seventh straight win improved their league-best record to 47-10. The Grizzlies, second in the Western Conference and coming off a come-from-behind victory in Orlando on Friday, were led by Jaren Jackson Jr.’s 22 points. Ja Morant added 21 points and 10 assists for Memphis, who trailed 62-56 at half time but briefly seized a one-point lead early in the third quarter. Cleveland were back on top and both coaches had already received technical fouls when a scuffle erupted midway through the third quarter, where Mitchell and Desmond Bane got into a scuffle chasing a loose ball and ended up wrestling on the court. Players from each team got involved with both Mitchell and Bane receiving technical fouls along with Morant and Cleveland’s Tristan Thompson. Cavs coach Kenny Atkinson said he was only sorry that multiple players got involved. “Stay out of the way and let the two guys tussle, everybody else stay out of it,” he said. The Grizzlies kept clawing until the end, slicing an 11-point deficit with 5:54 to play to three with 42.4 seconds on the clock, but the Cavs closed it out at the free-throw line. Western Conference leaders Oklahoma City also had to battle, finally beating the Minnesota Timberwolves 130-123 in a game that featured 18 lead changes. League scoring leader Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 37 points with eight rebounds, eight
Virat Kohli returned to his masterful best, completing his 51st ODI century and leading India home against Pakistan in the high voltage Champions Trophy 2025 clash. Chasing 242, Kohli took control after the departure of Shubman Gill, and paced his innings brilliantly. Kohli brought up his century - and the winning runs - with a superb cover drive, as India broke into celebrations. Leading the applause were India captain Rohit Sharma and India head coach Gautam Gambhir, who gave a standing ovation.
There wasn't much that went Pakistan's way in the ICC Champions Trophy Group A match against India. Batting first, Pakistan put in a laboured approach to reach a total of 241 runs on Sunday. India, thanks to Virat Kohli's sublime hundred, reached the target with more than 7 overs to spare. While the clash was pretty straightforward, with only the bat and the ball doing the talking, there was one moment that left fans a little infuriated. Pakistan spinner Abrar Ahmed's send-off to Shubman Gill, who had scored a century in the last match against Bangladesh, triggered a plethora of reactions on social media.
The master of chases in one-day cricket, Virat Kohli gave the world another reminder of his greatness in white-ball cricket and never-ending hunger for runs as he overcame a patchy run of form to score a memorable century against arch-rivals Pakistan in the ICC Champions Trophy. Dubai International Stadium witnessed a masterclass in run-chasing, with Kohli rewriting multiple records, surpassing Ricky Ponting to become the third-highest run-scorer in international cricket and completing 14,000 ODI runs.
