Virat Kohli trolled on social media after 48th ODI century but KL Rahul backs him

Virat Kohli might be winning hearts but there are some who do not approve of the run machine's stunning 100 against Bangladesh in Pune.

A lot of netizens are trolling the former Indian captain for allegedly putting his milestone ahead of India's victory. Notably, #selfish was also trending on X after Virat Kohli completed his 48th ODI ton with a six.

When Kohli was 26 runs away from his century India needed as many for victory. The chase master hit a 29 off 17 facing every single delivery with KL Rahul declining singles on offer. After the game, the wicket-keeper batter revealed, 'I denied single to Virat Kohli, he said it would be bad if you won't take singles, people will think I'm playing for personal milestone. But I said we are comfortably winning, you complete your century.
