Kohli's ton vs Johannesburg was really something else man. I am feeling nostalgic.
It was India's first overseas series without SRT,Rahul Dravid and VVS.
Before that in the ODI series one Morne Morkel ball hit him in the nets and in one of those games in the rain break SuperSport showed Kohli nursing his wounds and also played a few clips of him getting hit in

right in the ribs again and again. Their broadcasters captioned it saying "Kohli - softened up"
There were reports of Fletcher calling the producer and him blasting them and were asked to 'stick to cricket'

Ray Jennings before the start of test series said VK can't play short stuff as well but he's very good vs spin. Important to remember he was dropped after series when he struggled vs short stuff in his debut
India were 24-2 when he came and very early on he pulled Kallis for four. But that one pull off a firing Dale Steyn was just something else, it hit the fence even before Dale Steyn completed his follow through.
And then as usual Dale Steyn couldn't take that an Indian batsman pulled him for fours while others like Vijay and Dhawan were nicely roughened up by them in the whole tour with short stuff, so he started sledging him.
Kohli was very early in his test career and it's not very usual that he leaves a lot. On that day though even with Steyn fucking around with sledges and bowling at full tilt there was a phase where he left like 25-30 balls off the 60 he faced.
It really was his coming of age imo!
India could only manage 280 and RSA 244 and even in that Philander saved RSA's ass. Was Shami's first overseas test series, he too did well

Was so close to getting two hundreds in that Test 
Also Rahane was hit by a Steyn shirt ball in the ribs too. He didn't flinch even though Saffan cunts kept sledging him. Fucking geniuses Kohli and Rahane lmao.
