“Felt very nervous… like making my debut all over again” – Virat Kohli on 100th Test

The talismanic run-scorer shared that he felt “very nervous” when he walked out to bat in his 100th Test on Friday. The 33-year-old cricketer said he initially didn’t realize the magnitude of the landmark, but once he did, he felt butterflies in his stomach.

Addressing the media, Virat Kohli said:

“I told Rahul bhai, he asked me the morning, ‘How are you feeling?’, and I said I feel like I am making my debut all over again, to be honest. I had butterflies in my stomach.”

He added:

“I didn’t realize the magnitude of the occasion till things got closer to today and how the presentation happened, the ceremony happened and there were people in the stadium today as well. It was a moment which was very, very special and I did feel very nervous walking out before.”
