Twitter user predicts exact score, mode of dismissal, reaction of Virat Kohli in his 100th Test
Fans shocked, Sehwag says "Wow!!!"
User made the prediction nine hours before the game began in Mohali
Mohali: A Twitter user named Shruti #100 is grabbing all the attention of Indian Cricket fans on the micro-blogging site after she exactly predicts Virat Kohli’s score in his hundredth test match, his mode of dismissal, and the star batsman’s reaction to his dismissal.
The user in a tweet that was posted at 12:46 am on March 4 – nearly nine hours before Kohli’s milestone Test match began, said Kohli will not score his hugely awaited 71st century in his 100th Test and will fall after scoring 45 runs.
Not only his score, the user also predicted that Sri Lankan spinner Embuldeniya will knock his stumps over and Kohli will “pretend” to be shocked at his dismissal before nodding his head in dismissal.
On Friday, playing his 100th Test match, Kohli fell exactly on the score predicted by the user, was dismissed in a similar fashion as described in the tweet, and was also shocked at his dismissal.
However, the user had mentioned Kohli would score four “gorgeous cover drives” and would face 100 deliveries before being dismissed. The two predictions did not come through as Kohli was dismissed on his 76th delivery and had scored five boundaries across parts of the ground.
Reacting to the prediction, former India cricketer Virender Sehwag replied with “Wow!!!” while other fans were amused at the similarities in the prediction that was done nine hours before the game began.
A few users also claimed that the user in question had duped the tweet and used software to pre-date the tweet, which it claimed can be done by good technicians who know the software well.
Kohli Won't score a 100 in his 100th test. Will score 45 (100) with 4 gorgeous cover drives and then Embuldeniya will knock his stumps over and he'll pretend to be shocked 😳😳 and will nod his head in disappointment

NEET student hangs self in Rajasthan's Sikar
Jaipur (PTI): A student preparing for the NEET examination allegedly committed suicide by hanging himself in a rented room in Rajasthan's Sikar on Friday, police said.
According to the police, the student allegedly hanged himself from a ceiling fan using his sister's scarf while one sister was attending coaching classes and the other was in the bathroom.
He had appeared in the NEET UG exam 2026, which was cancelled due to paper leak, they said.
Udyog Nagar SHO Rajesh Kumar said that the deceased, identified as Pradeep Meghwal, was a resident of Kanika ki Dhani village in Jhunjhunu's Gudha Gaudji area.
He had been living in a rented room in Sikar's Jaldhari Nagar area with his two sisters while preparing for NEET over the last three years.
His elder sister later found him hanging and informed the landlord and police after bringing him down, officials said.
The SHO said the body was kept at SK Hospital mortuary, and a postmortem had not been conducted.
The student's father, Rajesh Kumar Meghwal, told police that Pradeep's NEET examination had gone well and the family was expecting him to score around 650 marks.
Former Rajasthan deputy chief minister Sachin Pilot expressed grief over the incident and linked it to anxiety among students after reports of irregularities and paper leaks in NEET 2026.
Pilot said repeated paper leak incidents and cancellation of examinations were affecting students' mental health and demanded a time-bound investigation and strict action against those responsible.
