Making the most of two missed opportunities during the game, Kohli scored his 45th ODI hundred to lead India to a commanding 373 for 7 over Sri Lanka.

Given that India's ODI schedule is jam-packed with 15 games (excluding the Asia Cup) over a 10-month period leading up to the World Cup in October-November, Kohli is certain to set more ODI records.

Virat Kohli made it two straight one-day international hundreds with his superb century against Sri Lanka on Tuesday in Guwahati.

On Tuesday against Sri Lanka, the Indian No. 3 hitter recorded his 45th ODI hundred, needing just 80 balls to reach the milestone. With the century in Guwahati, Kohli made it two in a row after ending a three-year century drought in one-day internationals last month against Bangladesh.


With 45 ODI hundreds under his belt, Kohli is one ODI hundred short of Sachin Tendulkar's record of 49 ODI tonnes.

Notably, Tendulkar's last five hundreds took him three years to score, while Kohli has only scored two hundreds in this format since 2020. Rohit Sharma, who has 29 ODI tonnes, is the next active player on the list behind Kohli.


In the inaugural ODI match against Sri Lanka, Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill put on a solid 143-run opening stand before Virat Kohli entered the field. Before Rohit was removed for 83, he reached 18 in 12 balls, showing off his fast start.

It took Kohli 47 balls to reach his century, which he scored with a six off Dhananjaya de Silva over mid-wicket. Soon after, Kusal Mendis dropped him off of Kasun Rajitha, and he made it count by concluding the over with back-to-back boundaries.


Kohli had advanced to 79 from 65 balls when KL Rahul was removed in the 41st over.

After scoring his 45th ODI century, Virat Kohli expressed gratitude for good fortune. You must give God praise for it.

In summary, Virat Kohli was dropped twice on his way to reaching 100.

In the first ODI against Sri Lanka, Kohli scored 113 off just 87 balls.

Twenty of Kohli's 45 ODI hundreds have come at home.

Web Desk for India Today After surviving two chances to reach his 45th ODI century on Tuesday, January 10 in Guwahati, India's skipper Virat Kohli stated he understands the value of luck. In order to reach his 20th ODI hundred at home and his ninth against Sri Lanka in the 50-over style of the game, Kohli was dropped twice.


When bowled by Kasun Rajitha, Kusal Mendis, a wicketkeeper-batter, dropped Virat Kohli at the score of 52. When Kohli was dismissed by captain Dasun Shanaka in the cover area on run number 81, the Sri Lankan right-arm bowler was once again the victim.


First ODI updates for IND vs. SL

Utilizing the chances that were presented to him, Kohli scored 113 runs off just 87 balls, including 12 sixes and a boundary. India scored 373 for 7 against Sri Lanka in the opening ODI of a three-match series thanks to Kohli's outstanding start to the New Year.


Kohli said he was appreciative of the opportunities that came his way on Tuesday after not having the luck of the green in recent years. Sunil Gavaskar constantly reminds us that Kohli's first error on Tuesday was not his last, and the former skipper can only hope that a little bit of luck would be on his side throughout the World Cup.

Who Is SpongeBob's Owner? Hollywood's Creative Base is Shaken by AI

 Phil Wiser, the head of technology at Paramount Global PARA -1.22%decrease; red down pointing triangle, used SpongeBob SquarePants to showcase the dangers and benefits of artificial intelligence for company executives. Mr. Wiser gave the order to DALL-E, an AI tool, to display SpongeBob, one of the most recognisable figures from Paramount, piloting a jet. At the presentation to Chief Executive Bob Bakish and others earlier this year, a picture of the rectangle cartoon character doing just that emerged on a big TV screen. The "Transformers" character Optimus Prime was then shown on the Paramount Studios lot by the tool at Mr. Wiser's request.

The recent rumours in Indian media that Hollywood action star Jason Momoa is being considered for the role of the villain in the Yash Raj Film-produced movie have only served to heighten the anticipation for the upcoming collaboration of Indian superstars Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan's Tiger vs. Pathaan. Siddharth Anand, an Indian filmmaker who has previously directed the recently released spy films Pathaan and War for the same production company, is helming the picture (2019). Avinash Singh Rathore, aka Tiger, who was portrayed by Salman in the Tiger franchise, and Pathaan, who was portrayed by Shah Rukh in his most recent film Pathaan, would be combined into one character in the future movie.
