Virat Kohli, the global face of Indian cricket, reminisced about his nerves before making his World Cup debut in 2011 against Bangladesh. The star batter not only made his debut in style but also became the first and only Indian to score a century on his World Cup debut. Kohli’s unbeaten 100 off 83 deliveries, along with a 203-run partnership with Virender Sehwag, helped Team India reach a formidable total of 370, leading to an 87-run victory.

Reflecting on his debut, Kohli admitted to feeling nervous before the game, especially as the youngest member of the team playing alongside Indian cricket greats in a World Cup match. Despite the nerves, Kohli acknowledged that the sense of excitement and anticipation added to the thrill of the occasion.
