In India's final Asia Cup match, Virat Kohli finally returned to form and ended his century drought, smashing at a staggering strike rate of 200.
Kohli's form was dipping for almost three years. Hence, he took 1020 days to score the 71st century of his career after 1020 days and 83 innings.
While smashing his century, Kohli made many records, including a 15-year-old record.
During his innings, Kohli scored 63 runs in the death overs i.e. the last five overs (15-20), breaking a previous record held by Yuvraj Singh.
The former India skipper smashed 12 fours and 6 sixes during his 61-ball 122, including the 63 runs in the final overs of their innings.
After Kohli, Yuvraj Singh is now second on this list. He scored 58 runs for India during a T20I match against England in 2007.
Third on the list is Suryakumar Yadav. The Mumbai Indians batter scored 53 against Hong Kong in the last five overs of their Asia Cup group A match.
After Virat Kohli's century, India has now recorded 10 centuries in T20I cricket. They have overtaken New Zealand's 9 centuries in T20I cricket.
Virat Kohl's unbeaten innings of 122 runs is the highest score by an Indian batter in T20 cricket for India, beating Rohit Sharma's innings of 118 runs.
