On Sunday, Pakistani fans erupted in joy and celebration once Kohli reached the milestone and India won the game. It was a typical Kohli knock which must have taken fans down memory lane. Kohli paced his knock to perfection and reinstated himself as the ‘chasemaster’. Here is the clip of Pakistani fans celebrating Kohli's hundred that has now gone viral:

‘Feels good to contribute’
"To be honest, it feels good to be able to bat in that manner in an important game to seal qualification. Feels good to contribute in a game where we lost Rohit early, had to put in the understanding of what we learnt in the last game. My job was to control the middle overs against the spinners without taking too many risks, towards the end Shreyas accelerated and I got a few boundaries as well. It allowed me to play my usual ODI game," Kohli said at the post-match presentation when receiving the Player of the Match award.

Following the loss, Pakistan have now lost two on the trot and their chances of making the semi-final is all but over. They have one game against Bangladesh left and they have to win it with a huge margin and hope other results go their way.
