Fans React to Two Years of Virat Kohli’s Iconic MCG Knock Against Pakistan in T20 World Cup 2022
On 23rd October 2022, India and Pakistan clashed in one of the most intense T20I games in cricket history. Virat Kohli made a remarkable 82 runs off 53 deliveries in the game, which helped India to mark their comeback from the point where the game was fully in the hands of Pakistan.
Pakistan started off the game at the Melbourne Cricket Ground by choosing to bat first, losing quick wickets in the early part of the game. However, Iftikhar Ahmed and Shan Masood made a 76 runs partnership in 50 balls, which helped the team to score 159 runs at the loss of 8 wickets in 20 overs.
Coming out to chase, India lost the wickets of Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul, and Suryakumar Yadav within the powerplay. Axar Patel was also runout later, but Hardik Pandya and Virat Kohli made a crucial partnership to help the team to win. During the last two balls of the 19th over, when India needed 28 runs off 8 balls, Kohli smashed two sixes consecutively to Haris Rauf. Further, India won the game with the winning shot of Ravichandran Ashwin against Mohammad Nawaz. Fans have reacted to two years of this iconic clutch knock of Virat Kohli against Pakistan on Twitter.
