Celebrities React to Virat Kohli’s 50th ODI Hundred, Breaking Sachin Tendulkar’s All-Time Record Against New Zealand
On Wednesday, during the 2023 ODI World Cup semi-final at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium, Virat Kohli scored his 50th century against New Zealand, shattering the record for the most hundreds achieved by any batter in ODI history. In the 42nd over of India’s innings, the former captain of the country scored two runs off Lockie Ferguson.
When he reached his 49th ODI century against South Africa at Eden Gardens in Kolkata on his 35th birthday, he had previously tied Sachin Tendulkar’s record. With this most recent ton, he has also eclipsed Tendulkar’s record.
With his century on Wednesday, Kohli surpassed Tendulkar, who concluded his career with 100 international hundreds, with 80 international hundreds.
Several Bollywood stars have sent their wishes to Kohli on this historic occasion and responded to his record-breaking achievement.
Sunny Deol posted on X, the former Twitter, saying, “The King Wins! As KING KOHLI sets a global record by securing his 50th ODI century, Wankhede watches history unfold.
He was dubbed “The undisputed KING of the cricket world” by Randeep Hooda.
Anupam Kher and Sophie Choudry also responded. See what they had to say about it:
For those who don’t know, in 2008, Kohli played his first ODI match in Dambulla against Sri Lanka. He was also a member of the Indian teams that won the Champions Trophy in England in 2013 and the ODI World Cup in 2011.
