Amul’s cartoon on Virat Kohli’s stirring hundred is spot on

Virat Kohli scored his first-ever Test hundred on English soil during the second day of the ongoing five-Test series.

 The Indian skipper batted with grit and patience to bring up his century off 172 balls on Day 2 of the first Test at Edgbaston against England.

The captain’s 149 (of 225 balls) shut his critics and won million hearts around the world, including fellow cricketers who lauded his resilience.

 Now, celebrating his achievement, Amul honoured the batting sensation in their latest cartoon.

In the newly released topical of the dairy brand, Kohli’s exuberant celebration and aggression have been captured brilliantly. With a witty wordplay on the word ‘virtuoso’, which means an expert or highly skilled, the cartoon wrote, “Viratuoso performance!”. And as his masterclass batting stood out while others suffered setbacks, the cartoon showed him as a lone fighter sailing on a raft by adding, “towers above the rest” in the tagline.
