It was his 51st ODI hundred and 82nd century overall. When it comes to ICC events, Kohli has always been a solid performer for India. He played vital roles in India's victories in 2011 (ODI World Cup), 2013 (Champions Trophy), 2024 (T20 World Cup) and even in their run to semifinal in the 2019 World Cup and final in the 2023 World Cup.

Kohli is also among the top batters when it comes to most runs scored in ICC ODI World Cups and Champions Trophy. He is the second highest run-getter in ODI World Cups and seventh in the Champions Trophy (after Pakistan match).
