As India turned the tide to pull off a stunner against Australian giants in the T20 World Cup, team India and their fans were elated, as was the star of the match Virat Kohli. The explosive batsman who is otherwise exhilarated in victory, seemed overwhelmed by the win against Australia, as he fell to his knees with his hands raised and nothing more than a smile. The otherwise aggressive player appeared emotional even in the post-match press conference, as he described his 82 runs off 51 balls as one of the best innings of his career, and a special one given the situation it came in.

Talking about his match winning innings, Kohli said,

"It certainly has to be in the top three, probably the top right now, because I'm a bit emotional, so I would like to put this on top. Against Australia, a world-class side, literally a quarter-final for us, we had to go over the line."

Kohli was at a loss of words when talking about the thrilling match, he said,

"I don't really know what to say right now, because I'm overwhelmed by the position we were in and then to take out the match, this is what you play cricket for. You need new challenges in every game, but trust me, you don't like these situations too much."
