Ranking all of Virat Kohli's 24 Test centuries

#8 - 116 vs Australia at Adelaide, 2012

Virat Kohli's maiden Test century is certainly one of his most memorable. Desperate to shrug off the tag of being a limited overs only player, Virat Kohli played a brilliant knock on a tour where most of the senior players failed.

Having made 604 in the first innings, the Australian team was well on top when they restricted India to 87-4, and in came in Virat Kohli. He not only showed great resistance in building meaningful partnerships with the tail but also responded superbly to the constant sledging by the Australian team, showing the positive impact of the aggression he had so frequently been criticised for early in his career.

He was able to adequately negotiate a potent Australian fast bowling attack and make one of the most memorable hundreds in Australia by an Indian, particularly by a young player.
