Indian skipper Virat Kohli scores hundreds for fun and he added another one after playing an under pressure knock against Australia in the second ODI at Adelaide.

It was a do-or-die game and Kohli came up with his best with the bat. He scored his 39th hundred in ODI and also became the eleventh highest run-getter in the format.

Kohli added 104 off 112 balls before gifting a catch to Glenn Maxwell off Jhye Richardson's delivery. He may not have finished the game for his team, but Virat did enough to give India a position to win the match.

This was Kohli's sixth ODI hundred against Australia. Apart from Kohli, Only Sachin Tendulkar (9) and Rohit Sharma (7) has scored more hundred against the same opposition.

Twitter was delighted with the batting display of Kohli after a rare failure in the first ODI.

Here are the best tweets:
