It was 22nd July 2012 , India was playing 4th ODI ( Score card below ) in Colombo against Srilanka of their Sri lankan tour when Virat Kohli made his 13th ODI century. Sachin Tendulkar had already made 49 ODI centuries which was a record then.
Shiju Balanandan ( a Kohli fan ) then predicted that Virat Kohli will break Sachin Tendulkar 's most number of ODI 100s . He predicted this through his Facebook post ( link below )
After almost 12 years , Virat Kohli has broken the Sachin Rendulkar 's most number of ODI hundreds during the 2023 ODI World cup . So the prediction of Shiju Balanandan has come true. But unfortunately Shiju Balanandan is not alive to see his prediction coming true. He died back in 2018, but till then ( 2018 ) he was following his prediction post . Kohli had mad 35 centuries till then.
Shiju Balanandan who predicted in 2012 ( 12 years ago) that Virat Kohli will break Sachin Tendulkar's most ODI 100s record.
