On this very day, Virat Kohli had told Pakistan that father is father, had taken out the oil from the bowler known as destroyer.

Cricket News Desk. On 23 October 2022, a match was played at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, which will not be forgotten for many decades. This match was between India and Pakistan in the ICC T20 World Cup. In fact, whenever these two teams clash on the cricket field, it becomes not a match but a war. The only difference is that this bullet is not fought with a gun but with a bat and a ball. This is the reason why hardly any fan can forget the cricket match between India and Pakistan.

A similar match was played two years ago. Before the match against India, the Pakistani team had created a complete atmosphere regarding Haris Rauf. Cricket experts also believed that this Pakistani fast bowler would devastate the Indian batting on the Melbourne pitch, but when the match took place, the same Haris Rauf kept hiding his face.

Virat Kohli brought down Haris' fever

The Pakistan team and Haris Rauf were very proud of their fast bowling. Even before the match, the Pakistani team had entered the field believing that their victory was certain. This was his biggest mistake. After losing the toss in the match against India, Pakistan was invited to bat first. With the help of half-centuries from Shan Masood and Iftikhar Ahmed, Pakistan scored 159 runs for 8 wickets in 20 overs.

Now it was Team India's turn to achieve the target. The score of 159 runs on the Melbourne pitch was challenging. Apart from this, both the openers of the Indian team, Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul were out after scoring only 4-4 runs. Indian fans were disappointed after the opener was out, but Virat Kohli, who came to bat at number three, took charge. Virat Kohli not only remained unbeaten but also dismissed Haris Rauf.

Virat Kohli's sixes have become memorable

While chasing the target, India kept losing wickets at one end, but Virat Kohli stood like a rock against Pakistan alone. Meanwhile, he got the support of all-rounder Hardik Pandya. Hardik Pandya ruined Pakistan's plans by playing an explosive inning of 40 runs. After this Virat Kohli earned the rest. Virat Kohli remained unbeaten till the end after scoring 82 runs in 53 balls.

In this innings, Virat Kohli also hit 6 fours and 4 sixes. This also includes his iconic six when Haris Rauf hit a six with the back of his hand while standing. Even today, Haris Rauf has not forgotten the six hit by Virat Kohli. Thanks to this strong innings of Virat Kohli, Team India scored 160 runs on the last ball and won the match by 4 wickets. Talking about Haris Rauf's bowling in this match, he took 2 wickets for 36 runs in four overs.
