Two days before the ODI match against South Africa in Ranchi, Virat Kohli had gone to the house of former Team India captain and his close friend MS Dhoni and met him. This meeting of the two created a lot of discussion. Now no one knows what happened between the two and what issues these two giants discussed. But the fans were happy to see both of them together. The happiness of these fans increased manifold two days later, when Virat Kohli once again batted brilliantly and scored a brilliant century in Dhoni's city.

Kohli scored this century in the first match of the ODI series on Sunday 30 November at the JSCA Stadium in Ranchi. Team India was batting first and Kohli made the fans happy by completing his century in 102 balls in the 38th over. This century of Kohli was very special, because his century came after many months and at the same time he also broke records. Let us know the big things about his century-
