10 years of Virat Kohli: In pictures

2009

The year 2009 saw Virat Kohli get more chances as he played 10 ODIs. He didn’t do too much in his first two games of the year but in the Champions Trophy game against West Indies, he struck an eye-catching 79.

Later, in December, he went onto score his maiden international ton when he scored 107 while chasing 316 against Sri Lanka at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. He averaged 54.17 that year and scored a couple of the fifties before scoring that magnificent maiden ton.
