Team India registered their second win of the ongoing T20 World Cup, riding high on a clinical all-round display spearheaded by Suryakumar Yadav and Virat Kohli who stayed unbeaten for 62 from just 44 balls, was for a second consecutive game, India's top-scorer. He was once again hailed for his mind-bending flat six, a shot that defied all kinds of inhibitions about the kind of miracles that Kohli is used to conjuring.

Another such legend of the game who made the leg-side flick his very own signature, Adam Gilchrist was in town for Kohli’s captivating strokeplay. Ahead of the game when Kohli was engaged in a conversation with Dale Steyn, he was fervently greeted by the Australian wicket-keeping icon.

He walked up to the Indian run-machine and exchanged a few words before passionately shaking his hands as a gesture of admiration and respect towards the RCB legend. Not only did he just shake his hands but he also patted him on his back and gave him a thumbs up before taking his leave.

Kohli was awarded the Player of the Match in the thrilling game against Pakistan where he single-handedly routed the continental neighbors with an unbeaten 82, acing the chase clinically from almost the very jaws of defeat.
