The Indian team continued their brilliant run of form at the ODI World Cup 2023 as they won their fourth consecutive game at the prestigious tournament, defeating Bangladesh in the 17th match in Pune on Thursday, October 19.
As the game progressed, one of the biggest highlights was ace batter Virat Kohli scoring a century and reaching yet another milestone. The 34-year-old scored 103* runs in 97 deliveries and helped India win the game by seven wickets.
However, as Kohli approached his century, he denied many singles and kept the strike, which helped him score a ton. The same attracted some criticism from the fans and critics, and amidst all the criticism, former Indian cricketer Kris Srikkanth took centre stage and defended the 34-year-old.
