It is interesting to see Sunil respond saying that is the plan. We are surprised! If that has to be true, Sunil will have to be on top his game for the at least the next five years to realistically chase that milestone.

After Indian captain Sunil Chhetri featured in his 100th international, becoming only the second Indian to do so. It seems questions are already being asked about whether he will play his 200th international. Meanwhile, Sunil Chhetri scored a brace to make his 100th game memorable for him and his national side. India beat Kenya 3-0, in Mumbai’s Andheri Sports Complex. The Indian captain also scored a hat-trick in the tournament opener against Chinese Taipei in the ongoing Intercontinental Cup 2018.
