Kohli now has 72 international centuries in the three formats combined and is now placed second only behind iconic Sachin Tendulkar (100 hundreds).
The century against Bangladesh is now the first for Virat in the ODIs since August 2019.

Earlier, in August, Kohli scored his maiden T20I century in the Asia Cup against Afghanistan. The century for Virat against the Afghans broke a three-year century drought for Virat.
Kohli was also the highest run getter in the 2022 T20 World Cup in Australia where he aggregated 296 runs in 6 outings. India exited the tournament in the semis after suffering a 10-wicket defeat.
