Ranking all of Virat Kohli's 24 Test centuries

#1 - 141 vs Australia at Adelaide, 2014

Widely regarded as Kohli's best Test hundred and one of the best fourth-innings displays in the history of cricket, this Virat Kohli hundred had great implications not only for him as a player but for the entire team.

In the first Test of the series, with Kohli at the helm, India were set a fourth innings target of 364 to win. India did not start well and fell to 57-2, with Nathan Lyon wreaking havoc.

Ordinarily, any team in such a situation would attempt to play out the match for a draw; however, in came in Kohli, aggressively sweeping Lyon and pulling the pacers, clearly going for the win.

On a difficult fifth day Adelaide pitch with uneven bounce, Virat Kohli and Murali Vijay took India to 241-2, with a real chance of pulling off one of the greatest fourth-innings chases ever. However, Vijay's wicket at 241 triggered a collapse, and Kohli, still going for the win, was left stranded.

Despite not resulting in an India win, this Virat Kohli innings reflected a change in the mindset of the Indian team, and through his brilliant display of counterattacking, Kohli showed that this new age Indian team was going to be one that can compete fearlessly against any team in the world.
