India vs Pakistan: Virat Kohli hits Mohammad Nawaz for a six\u00a9 Twitter\/Shoaib Akhtar<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Virat Kohli<\/a> played an unbelievable knock of 82 runs and stayed unbeaten till the end as India edged Pakistan in a last-ball thriller to win their opening match of the ICC T20 World Cup. India were in deep trouble after losing 4 wickets in just 6.1 overs but a century partnership between Kohli and Hardik Pandya<\/a> kept the team’s hopes alive.<\/p>\n

India needed 48 runs to win in the last three overs and that is when Kohli hit Shaheen Afridi<\/a> for three boundaries to bring the equation down to 31 runs off 12 balls. He then hit Haris Rauf<\/a>‘s last two deliveries of the 19th over for sixes with\u00a0India needing\u00a016 off the last over.<\/p>\n

Kohli was not on strike for first two deliveries and managed only a double off the third ball. With 13 needed off the last 3 deliveries, left-arm spinner Mohammad Nawaz bowled a high full toss, which Kohli dispatched over\u00a0the deep square leg fence.<\/p>\n

Kohli protested after hitting the ball, asking the umpires to review it for a no ball. The umpires eventually adjudged the delivery to be above the batter’s waist and called it a no ball. It helped India as they got a free hit and finally won the match\u00a0on the last delivery.<\/p>\n

Former Pakistan paceman Shoaib Akhtar<\/a> it seems was not happy with the decision and posted a cryptic tweet. “Umpire bhaiyo, food for thought aaj raat k liye,” Akhtar wrote.<\/p>\n
