T20 World Cup night Virat Kohli earned his ‘King of Chase’ crown with a Mohali classic to edge out Australia

Outstanding running rather than bruising strokeplay had ensured India still were in the hunt, with 39 required off three overs, when Kohli changed gears exponentially. James Faulkner, the tall left-arm quick with wonderful changes of pace, felt the full fury of Kohli’s scything willow as his first three balls went for four, four and six. 19 came off that over, and 16 off the next from Coulter-Nile, courtesy four magnificent Kohli boundaries – two cover-drives, a square-drive and a pull.

Key Highlights

  • In the bat of an eyelid, he had hurtled from 50 off 40 to 82 off 51; his last 32 runs came off a mere 11 balls with six fours and a six so that when the last over began, India needed just four for victory.
