Legendary Indian batter Virat Kohli continued his purple patch in the ongoing Indian Premier League season, hammering a sensational hundred in Royal Challengers Bengaluru's ongoing game against Rajasthan Royals. 

Kohli, who opened the batting for RCB with skipper Faf du Plessis, struck twelve glorious boundaries and four huge sixes for his scintillating 113*-run knock, which propelled the visitors to a respectable 183-run total on the board. 

In the mid-innings break, Kohli, while speaking to the broadcasters, revealed that he had to toil hard for his hundred, with the ball holding up off the surface. 

"It seems flat. But when you see it holding up in the pitch, you see pace is slowing down. I feel this is an effective total. If we get the change of pace and lengths right, we should be good," Kohli said. 

Regarding his valiant batting effort, the veteran batter reckoned that he kept things simple and played as per situation, eventually reaching the milestone without any hiccups. 

"I'm not coming in with premeditation. I don't want to be over-aggressive, want to keep the bowler guessing. They want me to go hard and get me out," he revealed. 

"It's just experience and maturity. I play the conditions and have the game ready. Doesn't seem there's dew hope it's the same. Balls didn't come on to bad, felt you couldn't get under bat," Kohli concluded. 

However, despite his stroke play, Kohli recorded the joint slowest hundred in IPL history. Chasing 184, the Royals got a disastrous start, losing Yashasvi Jaiswal to Reece Topley in the first over. 

As of writing, the hosts were nine for one in two overs, with Jos Buttler and Sanju Samson batting in the middle.
