"That라이브 바카라 done now and it has happened at a really good time at the tournament for him.
"One more game to go and then they head into the semi-finals. It was an almost perfect day for Virat and a great day for India."

"There is no doubt he is the absolute best and I have said that for a long time,” Ponting said. "He didn’t need to equal Sachin's record, he doesn’t need to break the record."
"If you look at his overall batting record it is incredible.
"To think that he got 49 ODI hundreds and equalled Sachin and in 175 less innings is unbelievable.”
