1.82* vs Australia
India was facing Australia in a virtual quarterfinal of the 2016 ICC T20 world cup in Mohali. Team India was under huge pressure has there place in the competition was on the line and they had to beat a powerful Australia side. Batting first Australia posted a total of 160 which looked above par as the pitch was playing tricks and shot-making was becoming difficult.
On the big day team, India once again needed their best batsman Virat Kohli to rise to the occasion and take his side to the semis. Kohli the man for the big occasions did just that as he not only played one of his best T20I knocks but it was arguably the greatest ever T20I knock played by anyone. India kept losing wickets at regular intervals but Kohli held one end and had decided to be the hero again in front of a sold-out crowd at Mohali.
In the final 3-4overs, Kohli went into overdrive and just dealt in boundaries and sixes as Australia was completely shell-shocked. Eventually, he scored 82 runs in 51 balls and took India to the sem-finals of the 2016 T20 world cup which will forever go down in history as one of the greatest T20I knocks of all time.
