Former Australia batsman Mark Waugh feels that Virat Kohli is still not at his “pure best” but during his knock of 186 he showed his class and determination.
“The drought’s over. The gates have opened,” former Australian batter Mark Waugh said on Fox Cricket.
“You could tell right from the get-go he meant business. He played very few risky shots.
“He was so patient, just picked the bowling off.
“I don’t think he’s at his pure best at the moment, as far as his Test career is concerned … but it just shows you his class.”
It took Kohli 24 matches, 42 innings and 1205 days to score his 28th Test century. Kohli’s last test hundred came against Bangladesh in November 2019. Kohli got to his 75th international hundred off 241 balls, the second slowest test hundred in terms of balls faced.
