Indian cricketer Virat Kohli achieved a remarkable milestone on Wednesday, scoring his 53rd One-Day International (ODI) century in the ongoing series against South Africa. In a heartwarming gesture, his wife Anushka Sharma celebrated the achievement on her Instagram stories, posting a photo of Virat's triumphant moment on the field. The picture captures Virat, dressed in his blue jersey, lifting his bat in one hand and his helmet in the other, amidst a cheering crowd. The post was accompanied by a red heart emoji, showcasing Anushka's pride in her husband's remarkable feat. In a touching moment, Virat was seen kissing his wedding ring, worn around his neck for the match, as he gazed up at the sky. Virat's latest century was his second consecutive in the ongoing ODI series, and his 84th international century overall. He achieved this milestone during the second ODI against South Africa at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium in Raipur. His previous century in the series saw him score 135 runs off 120 deliveries, including 11 fours and seven sixes, leading India to a 17-run win in Ranchi. The couple, who tied the knot in 2017, has been private about their lives, but their love for each other is evident in moments like these. They have two children, Vamika and Akaay, born in 2021 and 2024, respectively. Virat's achievement has once again brought attention to his remarkable cricketing career, with him now just one century shy of Sachin Tendulkar's record 100 international centuries.
