From scoring forgettable 4 and 15 on his Test debut against the West Indies at Sabina Park in 2011, Virat Kohli has come a long way in over a decade-long journey in which he has amassed 7962 runs at a stellar average of 50.39 in the longest format.

Former India captain Virat Kohli didn’t have the slightest idea that he would end up playing 100 Tests for India when he first started out and as he geared up for the landmark game on Friday, the former captain and batting superstar said his life is an ‘example that anything is possible’. The 33-year-old, who is counted among the greatest exponents of the purest format, will be facing Sri Lanka in his milestone match. He said he gave his heart and soul to the sport and he still has butterflies in his stomach ahead of every match.
