Notably, the Kohli-Shastri duo was one of the most dominant captain-coach duos in modern-day cricket and together they took Indian cricket to new heights, especially in Test cricket.
Meanwhile, ahead of his 100th Test Virat Kohli said that he never thought he would represent India in 100 Test games. He added that he has worked very hard and playing the 100th Test will be a big moment for him.
“I honestly never thought I would play 100 Test matches. It has been a long journey. We played a lot of cricket over the course of playing those 100 Test matches,” Kohli said in a video posted by the BCCI.
“A lot of International cricket. I am just grateful that I’ve been able to make it to 100.”
“God has been kind. I have worked really hard for my fitness. It’s a big moment for me, for my family, for my coach, who is also very happy and very proud of this Test match as long as I am concerned,” Kohli told BCCI on the eve of the Test match in Mohali.
