The brilliance of cricket was on display today in Ranchi, where Virat Kohli wreaked havoc on MS Dhoni’s home ground.
In the first ODI between India and South Africa, Virat played a blistering innings of 135 runs, hitting 11 fours and 7 sixes.
This was his 52nd ODI century, breaking Sachin Tendulkar’s record for most centuries in a single format. Virat achieved this feat off 120 balls, and the fans in the stadium went wild.
But the real fun came from the dressing room, where Rohit Sharma, in excitement, shouted “Behe*****” Yes, exactly as captured in the video. Rohit’s reaction went viral on social media.
Rohit-Virat pair breaks all records
At the start of the match, India won the toss and chose to bat first, but opener Yashasvi Jaiswal was dismissed early.
Then came Rohit Sharma, who scored 57 runs off 51 balls. Together, they shared 136 runs for the second wicket, their 20th century partnership.
The pair is now the second most successful in ODIs, with 5619 runs, behind only Ganguly and Tendulkar. Virat, along with Rohit, steadied the innings, and as soon as he completed his century, the field erupted in applause.
Gautam Gambhir also came onto the field and hugged Virat, an emotional moment.
Virat’s charisma and Rohit’s passion
Virat’s innings was not just about runs, but also about aggression. He completed his century with a four off Marco Jansen, yet maintained the momentum in the run chase.
Overall, Virat reached 83 international centuries, setting a new benchmark in cricket history. Rohit stood in the dressing room applauding, and his shout of “Behe*” brought laughter and excitement to the fans.
The video clearly showed how happy Rohit was, as if he had scored a century. Virat thoroughly thrashed the South African bowlers, and his batting was especially impressive in reverse swing.
This match proved that age is just a number. At 37 and 38, Rohit and Virat are still the backbone of Team India. This innings sent a powerful message on the path to the 2027 ODI World Cup. By scoring a total of 312 runs, India has established a strong position.
