1. 82* runs off 53 balls vs Pakistan, T20 World Cup 2022

India clashed with Pakistan in their opening match of the T20 World Cup 2022 at the Melbourne Cricket Stadium. Babar Azam & co., after being put into bat posted a competitive total of 159 runs on the board with Shan Masood and Iftikhar Ahmed scoring half-centuries.

Chasing 160, the Men in Blue were in a spot of bother at 31 for 4, and the chances of making a comeback against a fiery Pakistan bowling attack were looking bleak. But Virat Kohli had some other plans. He gradually built his innings fetching singles, twos, and even threes, and when the time was right, the former Indian skipper just unleashed.

However, there was one point when 28 runs were required of eight deliveries and Hardik Pandya was struggling to get his timing right at the other end. The task was cumbersome but there was no stopping Kohli. From a daunting equation, he brought it down to two runs off as many balls and India went on to script a historic triumph. The veteran batter remained unbeaten on 82* runs off 53 deliveries.
