Rohit Sharma has declared Virat Kohli’s stunning innings in India’s T20 World Cup win over Pakistan as his finest on the International stage.
Pakistan appeared set to close in on a huge win over their bitter rivals before 90,000 spectators at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground. Fifties from Iftikhar Ahmed and Shan Masood gave Pakistan a 159-8 total, and Pakistan stunned India to leave them struggling at 31-4 in the seventh over.
India required 48 to win from the final three overs before Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf battled to leave them needing 16 from the final six balls. Mohammad Nawaz bowled the last over and was hit for six by Kohli, which was deemed a no-ball.
