Virat Kohli marked his 35th birthday with a spectacular century, his 49th in ODI cricket, during India's World Cup match against South Africa at the Eden Gardens.

This remarkable feat allowed Kohli to equal the legendary Sachin Tendulkar's record for the most ODI centuries.

 

It was a birthday gift to himself, and his ardent supporter, his wife, actor Anushka Sharma, didn't hold back her excitement.
