India captain Virat Kohli got his name etched on the Trent Bridge Honours Board after he scored his 23rd Test century in the third Test of the five-match Test series against England on August 21. Virat Kohli, along with Cheteshwar Pujara (72), strung together a massive 113-run partnership for the 3rd wicket to give the hosts a 521-run target.
In a small video interaction with BCCI, Kohli said, “Feels really good to be up on the honours board, especially when your effort is recognised in that way and the team has benefitted from it.”
“Although these things don’t really matter. It is just part of the tradition of the game. It is a nice touch for any player to recollect all the memories of what they have achieved in the different parts of the world,” Kohli added.
“I’m really proud of that but more importantly as I said, it helped the team to a certain extent and I’m very happy about that,” Kohli remarked.
On the fourth day of the third Test, Jasprit Bumrah starred with the ball as he returned with figures of 5/85, helping India inch closer to a famous victory.
