Bangalore: As Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Virat Kohli reached yet another ton, Twitter was full of messages from the cricketing fraternity lauding the magnificent knock by the flamboyant right-hander.
While Kohli has been in sensational form since the beginning of 2016, yesterday's knock was special as he was batting with 7-8 stitches in his left-hand.
The moment he reached the three-figure mark, Kohli gestured towards his hand showing that he had fought pain to play another captain's knock for his team.
