Virat Kohli showcased his batting brilliance with a stellar 30th Test century during India’s innings against Australia in Perth. Kohli reached the milestone off 143 balls, helping India set a massive 534-run target in the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. His celebration became a highlight as he blew a flying kiss to his wife, actress Anushka Sharma, who cheered from the stands. Kohli also set a record for the most Test hundreds by an Indian in Australia. India declared at 487/6, while Australia's fragile reply left them at 12/3, needing 522 runs to win with seven wickets remaining.
