In times of three formats, I played 100 Tests; next generation can take that from my career: Kohli

MOHALI: Basking in the glory of becoming only the 12th Indian cricketer to play 100 Tests, Virat Kohli on Friday said he wants the “next generation” to take inspiration from the fact he could achieve the milestone despite playing in all three formats through a gruelling international schedule.
Indian cricket’s reigning superstar was felicitated by the BCCI on Friday commemorating his landmark 100th Test match — the first game against Sri Lanka here.
“In present day cricket, with the amount of cricket we play with three formats and the IPL, the only takeaway if the next generation can take from my Test career is that I was able to strive through and play the purest format of the game and get to 100 Test matches,” Kohli said after being felicitated by head coach Rahul Dravid before the match this morning.
