Virat Kohli scores a century every five innings on an average. Now, he has gone eight innings without a three-figure score. While Kohli has been brilliant, a century is proving elusive. The last time Kohli took so long between two ODI centuries was in 2017 when he had to wait for 11 innings.

The India skipper, who converts 50s into 100s at a rate of 43.16 percent — second to Australia's David Warner (44.44) — has scored five consecutive half-centuries in the last eight matches. Kohli will look to end his century wait today when India take on Bangladesh — the team against whom he enjoys his best average (81.75) among all opponents. Interestingly, Kohli made his World Cup debut with a century against the same team in 2011 at Mirpur.
