Kohli became the first batter to reach the milestone in international T20s after 115 matches. Kohli averages 52.74 in the shortest format with 37 half-centuries and a sole century.
Kohli hit a well-timed fifty against England in the semi-final and held the Indian innings after the openers and Suryakumar Yadav were dismissed early. His fifty came in 40 deliveries with four boundaries and a maximum, but he was caught at backward point on the very next ball he completed his half-century.
