Regarding the part in bold, you think thats the reason he's still playing? Some of you are really clueless. Had it been the 100th 100 he wanted, he'd have played the recent home ODIs that we've played, dont you think? It was a home series against West Indies of all teams. You'd bet your house on him getting a century in 5 innings at home vs that attack. But he took a rest.

And the celebrations by Kohli werent pathetic at all. He's been under a lot of pressure from the media as well as from the crowds in the ground. Add to that the sledging that he's been targeted with, its no surprise he gave it back. He's that kind of a man, most young ones now are actually. they dont take shit. He got a century and he vented out. Lots of cricketers do.

Exactly all those are personal reasons to celebrate and last I checked cricket is still a team game. In terms of contribution to the team it meant fuck all, India were getting raped in the match and the series. He was celebrating so excessively that he nearly forgot the second run - disgraceful stuff. If this what the future is like, then I worry about Indian cricket.

As i said, it was him reacting to all the pressure from the press and the bollocking that he has got from the crowds and the aussie players. It was also his 1st test century, so you can understand what it meant to him given how much more established cricketers have fared in the series.

He said the players did nothing wrong, and the sanction was unjust.
I wouldnt know about NDTV mate. Being a student that lives away from home, no tele for me just the papers. I take you word on this though. NDTV got it wrong here. No excuse for such behavior.
