Virat Kohli smashes most sixes in an ODI innings, surpasses previous best

During the opening fixture against the visiting West Indies lineup, Indian batter Virat Kohli established a fresh personal milestone by clearing the boundary nine times, eclipsing his previous high watermark of eight sixes set against Sri Lanka at the identical ground back in 2023. He remained unbeaten on 139 runs from 88 deliveries, reaching his 55th century in the format alongside his 15,000th career run, making him only the second player in history to attain that threshold after Sachin Tendulkar.

Teammate Shubman Gill also added 110 runs off 108 balls to support the chase. West Indies had initially established a total of 295 runs for the loss of seven wickets after batting first in the contest.

India successfully overhauled the target in 41.4 overs to secure an eight-wicket victory.
