Internet Desk: Despite a loss at the hand of New Zealand in the second T20 and thereby the Black Caps leveled the series, the Indian team members had a lot to do with merriment.

The loss had nothing to affect the team as the members were enthusiastically involved in the birthday bash of skipper Virat Kohli. The birthday boy Kohli was smeared with the birthday cake by his fellow team mates.

Kohli has an incredible form this season as a captain and as a batsman after he led the Men in Blue to a record nine-match winning run in the ODIs.

Kohli also became the first ever Indian skipper to inflict a crushing whitewash on Sri Lanka after India won 3-0 in Tests, 5-0 in ODIs and 1-0 in T20s in the foreign Lankan soil.

As for Individual records are concerned Kohli became the fastest batsmen to score 9000 runs and became the sixth Indian batsmen to achieve this record. Kohli also registered himself in the second spot with most ODI centuries after he crossed Ricky Ponting (32) and only remains behind The Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar (49). After amassing a whopping run record of 1460 runs in a calendar year, Kohli happens to be the only person to score these runs as a captain.
