Xtra Time Web Desk: There were some special moments unfolding at the Melbourne Cricket Ground immediately after India scripted a thrilling win over Pakistan in Super-12 clash of ongoing T20 World Cup 2022. Virat Kohli played one of his best T20 knocks (82 off 53) in his career so far to power India to an unbelievable 4-wicket win against arch rivals Pakistan.

There were wild scenes of celebrations in the Indian dug-out. Ravichandran Ashwin, who hit the winning runs was ecstatic as he ran with hands on the sky and rushed towards Virat and hugged him tightly. Another hero of the match, all rounder Hardik Pandya too ran in to celebrate the victory.

Virat’s closest friend KL Rahul, who disappointed with the bat was also seen congratulating him on the incredible run-chase.
