Former India cricketer Wasim Jaffer believes Virat Kohli has the potential to surpass Sachin Tendulkar's record of 100 international centuries, crediting his current form and fitness. Jaffer and former South Africa opener Herschelle Gibbs both emphasize Kohli's remaining years in cricket and laud Shubman Gill as a rising star in Indian cricket.

Kohli's diving catch to dismiss Naseem Shah during India's Champions Trophy win over Pakistan was his 157th in ODIs, moving him ahead of Mohammad Azharuddin for the most outfield catches in the format by an Indian player. Azharuddin took his last ODI catch for India in 2000.
