India vs West Indies: Virat Kohli set to join MS Dhoni, Sachin Tendulkar in elite list with 100 ODIs at home

India vs West Indies: Virat Kohli is all set to become the 5th India cricketer after Sachin Tendulkar, Mohammad Azharuddin, Yuvraj Singh and MS Dhoni to feature in 100 ODIs at home.

Former India captain is all set to join an elite list of India cricketers as he gears up for his 100th ODI at home. Kohli will achieve the landmark when India take on the West Indies in the 2nd of a 3-match ODI series at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Wednesday, February 9.

Virat Kohli will become only the 5th India cricketer to play 100 ODIs at home after Sachin Tendulkar, Mohammad Azharuddin, MS Dhoni and Yuvraj Singh. Kohli has played a total of 258 ODIs and scored over 12,200 runs.

Kohli has played 99 ODIs and has scored 5002 runs and hit 19 hundreds in home conditions. Only Sachin Tendulkar has a better record than the former captain. The legendary Mumbai batter finished with 6976 runs in 164 ODIs at home.

Notably, Kohli can also achieve another major landmark if he gets to the much-awaited 3-figure score as he will equal Tendulkar's tally of most hundreds at home for India in ODIs.

Virat Kohli, who was part of India's 1000th ODI on Sunday, got out for just 8 after playing 4 deliveries in a strange knock. India managed to hammer West Indies by 6 wickets as spin twins Yuzvendra Chahal and Washington Sundar picked up 7 wickets between them to restrict West Indies to 177.

Virat Kohli hasn't been in the best of forms in international cricket as a century has eluded him since November 2019. However, the former captain hit 2 fifties in losing cause in South Africa but his innings on Sunday did raise a few eyebrows.
