Indian talismanic captain Rohit Sharma contradicted Bollywood actress Anushka Sharma`s claim that Virat Kohli was batting through sickness on Day 4 of the fourth and final Test of the ongoing Border-Gavaskar series in Ahmedabad on Sunday. Sharma`s Instagram story raised several eyebrows with Kohli fans expressing concern about his health.
Putting an end to his Test century drought, Kohli led India`s batting onslaught, top-scoring for the side as the hosts toppled Australia`s mammoth 1st innings total. India, riding on his blistering knock, posted a colossal total of 571 in the first session at Ahmedabad, forging a 91-run lead. The 34-year-old put on a batting masterclass to notch up a cracking century in 241 balls against Australia. His 75th international century was the second-slowest ton in his iconic career.
