Indian skipper Virat Kohli is on fire today on Day 2 of the second Test match against South Africa in Pune.
Kohli became the first Indian to smash seven double hundreds in Test cricket. He also reaches the landmark of 7,000 Test runs too.
The captain also surpassed former Australia cricketer Don Bradman to record the most number of 150 plus scores as captain in international cricket.
Kohli now has nine scores of 150 plus while captaining India, whereas Bradman had eight scores of more than 150.
The 30-year-old, who is leading his side in the 50th Test match, also joined New Zealand's Stephen Fleming, England's Alastair Cook and Australia's Steve Waugh to become only the fourth captain to score a century in his 50th match as captain.
Seeing the 'King' back in form, netizens are overjoyed and pour in their love.

The landmarks flow for Virat Kohli. Like a champion batsman he breaks a 10 innings century drought with a double. And, something that is becoming noteworthy for him, without a single six! Most doubles by an Indian now and the small matter of 7000 test runs.
