9. Kohli exposes Pakistan`s selection failure
• It was a great match one that will go down in legend. And Pakistan were good, though not quite good enough to overcome an inspirational innings from Virat Kohli, a mad last over from Mohammad Nawaz, some generous interpretations by the umpiring team in India`s favour, and a selection error of Pakistan`s own making.
• Kohli, as often is the way, saved his best for Pakistan. He may have mellowed over the years, winning admiration on both sides of the border, but remains a supreme competitor.
• Winning a game single-handedly, against the odds, is the pinnacle of batting achievement. It`s a narrative that Kohli loves, and to do it in Melbourne`s cricketing amphi theatre with 92,000 hooting and cheering fans, as well as the billions transfixed at home, was the height of audacity.
