    IND vs SA: Virat Kohli On the verge of hitting his 49th ton against South Africa on his birthday 

    Virat Kohli is making sure that he gives fans and teammates a special return gift on his birthday. The Indian batter is currently playing for the team in the ICC World Cup 2023 clash against South Africa. The match is taking place at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata, where India opted to bat first.

    Kohli has continued his golden touch in the tournament and has played a magnificent knock. He’s on the verge of smashing another century and if he achieves that he will equal Sachin Tendulkar’s tally of most centuries in ODIs.

    The batter steadied the innings well and was batting at 77 at the time of writing this piece. He is India’s leading run-getter in the tournament with over 500 runs to his name. With the way he’s batting, he will be extremely crucial for the team going into the business end of the tournament.
