Virat Kohli turns 28
Virat was born in 1988 to Prem and Saroj Kohli in Delhi.
A prolific batsman, he has broken and created new records.
At 28, Virat has already scored 39 International centuries to go along with his 66 half centuries across the three formats.
Apart from being a member of the 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup victorious squad, Virat also found success in the age-group level.

On his birthday, former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag greeted his on Twitter in his own unique style.
"Haazme ki Goli, Rangon ki Holi,Gujarat me Ghagra Choli
Aur Batting mein Virat Kohli Poore India ko pasand hai
#HappyBirthdayVirat @imVkohli," Sehwag said.
