NEW DELHI: Veteran batter Virat Kohli turned back the clock with a composed 84, leading India to a tense four-wicket victory over Australia in the first semi-final of the Champions Trophy on Tuesday. Chasing 265, India lost the 36-year-old Kohli in the final stretch, but KL Rahul’s unbeaten 42 ensured the team crossed the line with 11 balls to spare at the Dubai International Stadium.
With this win, India booked a spot in Sunday’s final in Dubai, where they will face the winner of the second semi-final between South Africa and New Zealand.
