Watch: Virat’s two sixes in a row that brought India back in the game vs Pakistan

The video shows India’s big hitter Virat Kohli smashing two huge sixes in a row on the 5th and the 6th delivery off Pakistan’s ace pacer Haris Rauf in the 19th over to change the odds in India’s favour. The two big hits left 16 runs to be scored from the last over to surpass Pakistan’s total of 159 in the T20 World Cup match at Melbourne in Australia. India then went on to win on the last ball of the cliff-hanger with Virat ending up with a priceless unbeaten 82 off 53 balls.

” When we needed 28 runs from the last 8 balls, I was bucking myself telling ‘I have to hit two sixes’ otherwise we’ll lose the game,” Virat Kohli said after the match in an interview with Star Sports.
