Kohli batted first for India against Afghanistan in the Asia Cup Super 4 match, scoring an unbeaten 122 off 61 deliveries.
It was his first international century since November 2019, and his first for India in the shortest format.
Kohli hit 12 fours and four sixes in an imperious display against Afghanistan, illuminating what was otherwise a dull contest.
He kissed his wedding ring, which he wore on a chain around his neck, as he celebrated his century.
He went on to dedicate the century to Anushka and Vamika, their daughter.
