Port of Spain: India captain Kohli scored 120 to help India post 279-7 in 50 overs in the second ODI against the West Indies in Trinidad here yesterday. The heavens opened when India had reached 233 for four off 42.2 overs, but the players returned shortly and Shreyas Iyer and Kedar Jadhav continued batting at the Queen's Park Oval. The first match of the series in Guyana on Thursday was abandoned due to rain.

Toss-winner Kohli scored his first ODI century since March when he scored 123 against Australia at Ranchi. That knock came after his 126 in the previous game at Nagpur. While the India captain was delighted with his knock and his reaction — pointing to the back of his shirt before acknowledging the cheers from the crowd and dressing room — revealed so, he would have been pretty gutted in the manner in which he got out. He skied one off Carlos Brathwaite which Kemar Roach accepted at long off. The slower ball had done Kohli in. His 125-ball knock was spiced with one six and 14 fours.
