Virat Kohli achieved this massive feat in the Asia Cup 2023 Super 4 match against Pakistan on September 11 at R. Premadasa Stadium, Colombo.

Right after the Pakistan vs India Asia Cup 2023 group match ended a draw after rain interrupted and forced the officials to end the match, ACC announced a reserve day for their Super 4 clash on Sunday.

As expected the rain intervened and forced the match to halt while India scored 147 runs for 2 wickets loss in 24.1 overs. Kohli who scored just 7 runs at the beginning of the match on the reserve day started to hit aggressively and scored his half-century in 55 balls.

With the score, Virat Kohli becomes the third player with the most 50+ scores in ODIs. None other than the God of Cricket, Sachin Tendulkar tops the list with 154 50+ scores.
