"It was a very, very good innings by Virat Kohli. A very good partnership between him and Jadeja. I think Virat was determined to get a hundred in this Test match, the 100th Test between India and West Indies, and the 500th international game for him.

"He wanted something to remember from the match. You could see the determination on his face. The sheer timing and the maturity he showed, there was nothing much that went wrong with this innings. You could tell he wanted a big score and he got it. He wanted to do something bigger, he found the gaps very well, superb timing. At the end of it, proper celebration. It was a Virat Kohli show."

The Windies legend is a big fan of Virat Kohli. In an interview, Lara was positive that Kohli would go back to average in the 50s in Test cricket and stated that the Indian batter is a joy to watch.

"Virat is a great player; someone like that, you cannot keep them down for long. If you do, someone has to pay at the end of the day. The way he has looked in the IPL and recently, he is just an awesome player, and you simply cannot expect someone like Kohli to be down for long.
