Captain Virat Kohli registered his 27th Test century to help India consolidate their lead over Bangladesh on Day 2 of the Day-Night match at Eden Gardens, Kolkata Saturday.
Once he reached the hundred, Kohli hit Abu Jayed four successive boundaries in the 71st over. The 31-year-old started with a streaky four off the first ball, to the backward region. He followed it with a sublime straight drive past Ravindra Jadeja at the non-striker's end.
Showing his class, the right-handed batsman flicked the third ball past mid-wicket. Then, Kohli found the gap at the square region for the fourth four.

India were 309/6 after 82 overs and have taken a lead of 203 runs.
