Virat Kohli has not just struck sixes in this tournament, but hit those that would stay eternally in the eye and mind of the spectators. The six off Hasan Mahmud in the 19th over was a sparkling gem. The ball was pitched up, a yorker gone awry perhaps. Kohli’s front-foot glided forth to the pitch of the ball and with a firm, fluid bat-swing he drove him straight over his head, up and over, the high front-elbow winking at the skies, Kolhi striking a statuesque pose in the follow-throw for the shutterbugs to frenziedly capture that image and save it for posterity. The six perhaps was not as difficult, or executed under such immense pressure as in the Pakistan game, but on the grandeur-scale, this was an equal.

Virat Kohli at the Adelaide Oval in international cricket:
14 Innings.
904 Runs.
75.34 Average.
5 Hundreds.
3 Fifties.
A late cameo by Ashwin and Kohli's late charge helps India score 24 runs off the last 8 balls of the innings. India finish with 184/6 in 20 overs
Dinesh Karthik kept shaking his head in rage as he walked back to the pavilion after he was run out. He would thud his pad violently with the bat and kept cursing himself. Short of runs, his place under scrutiny and having just struck a sweet four, Karthik was desperate to make this opportunity count against his favourite opponent. A careless run-out was the last thing he would have wished for. There was a touch of comedy about the incident. Virat Kohli had just tipped the ball to cover, timing the ball sweeter than he had thought. But Karthik had taken off, he was within touching distance of Kohli when the latter shouted at him to return. Karthik made a frantic sprint back and leapt full-pelt, but the throw was fast and accurate enough to catch him short of the crease. After he scrambled back to his feet, he wildly gesticulated to Kohli that there indeed was a run in it. But Kohli would nod his head in disapproval. Whatever, Karthik wasted perhaps the most golden opportunity to retain his spot.

After finding the much-needed boundary, Kohli hits a maximum to bring up 170 for India! What a shot that was! Picture perfect, Kohli goes down the ground and clears the man at long-on. Score after 19 overs, IND: 170/6
Virat Kohli swung a bouncer from Hasan Mahmud on a couple of bounces to deep square leg and immediately raised his right hand towards the square-leg umpire Chris Brown, reminding him it was the second delivery of the over above shoulder height and hence a no-ball. As a free hit was awarded, Bangladesh skipper Shakib Al Hasan ran upto Kohli, put an arm around him smilingly and seemed to tell the umpires that “just because” it was Virat Kohli who was asking for the no-ball, they were calling it so. When he had swung the high full toss from Mohammad Nawaz for six in the last over against Pakistan, Kohli had instantly raised his right hand towards the square-leg umpire Marais Erasmus, who was at the bowler’s end in the Hasan Mahmud over today. It was all sorted out amicably between Kohli and Shakib eventually.

Axar Patel chips into the cover region and Shakib takes a good catch running backward. Hasan has another and India are losing momentum here. Just 9 runs from the last 9 balls. India needs the final flourish
Left arm spinner Shakib Al Hasan is a wily fox, not the kind of spinner against whom a batsman can claim they are 'in'. Even in T20s. Shakib can be irritatingly accurate but also can make subtle changes in pace without too much of change in his arm speed. He had dismissed KL Rahul when he got the India opener to top edge when he tried to lap to fine leg. A little quicker than Rahul expected. Then he got one to bounce to which Suryakumar Yadav tried to slog sweep. Yadav was lucky as Mustafizur Rahman couldn't clasp after getting to the ball. However, he got Yadav a few balls later with a little drift. This was slower and Yadav went too early for the cut. A rare mistimed shot for the in-form Yadav. A smart change of pace from Shakib.

Dinesh Karthik is gone for 7. A wide full-toss and Kohli slapped it straight to extra-cover, DK was haring across for a run, sent back late and he's caught well short. Score after 17 overs, IND: 150/5
This is his third fifty in this year's T20 World Cup! Another spectacular knock from Kohli in this T20 World Cup. Virat Kohli is averaging 200+ in this World Cup.
After playing a short pitch delivery from Hasan Mahmud, Virat Kohli asked the umpire whether it was a no-ball. But Shakib didn't like it and there was some chatter in the middle. At the end, both hugged each other. What a moment in the game. Score after 16 overs, IND: 140/4
Hits it straight to backward point. The short delivery could have gone anywhere but lands straight to the fielders hands. Hasan picks up his second wicket. The tactic to bowl short to Hardik has worked. Remember- pacers have bowled 65.2 percent of deliveries Hardik Pandya on back of a length/short. India are losing wickets quickly but Virat Kohli is well settled on 44. Score after 16 overs, IND: 140/4
Rahul Dravid and Rohit Sharma must be relieved after KL Rahul came good with a half century after his last three innings read 4, 9, 9. The Indian team management had been backing him and will continue to back him as they believed in him and saw what Rahul brings to the table. Batting coach Vikram Rathour and Dravid seemed to be having a relieved laugh as Rahul was about to reach his 50 runs mark. After all it was key for openers to click in these big tournaments.

Virat Kohli hits back-to-back boundaries off Mustafizur. The first one was a wild heave that went over the mid-wicket area. The next one was pitched outside off and Kohli moved across and creamed it over mid-on. 11 from the over. Score after 15 overs, IND: 130/3
Suryakumar Yadav was twice lucky in the 12th over bowled by Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan. He tried to sweep the first ball hard, but top-edged it behind the wicketkeeper. Mustafizur Rahman made a dash for it from short fine leg, but even as he stretched out both hands, the ball slid through between his palms. He was running to his 'wrong side', he is a left-hander, Sunil Gavaskar immediately pointed out on air, never one to miss out on this particular detail. Four balls later, Suryakumar went after an 87kph delivery that Shakib fired full outside off, but a thin edge rushed above the wicketkeeper’s gloves for two runs this time.

Bowled!! Shakib gets his man and Suryakumar Yadav is gone for 30 off 16 balls. It was a well-thought delivery that came back in and crashed into the stumps. SKY went for the cut and missed. You miss and I hit - that's the formula. Score after 14 overs, IND: 119/3
Suryakumar Yadav is on fire as he takes on Hasan Mahmud and smashed him for two fours in a row. But he is not done yet and finds another one to end the over. That makes it 14 from the over. Score after 13 overs, IND: 115/2
Mustafizur fumbles the catch and then Suryakumar Yadav steals a couple and with that Indian scoreboard reaches the three-figure mark. Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav continue to dominate. Score after 12 overs, IND: 101/2
Coach Rahul Dravid had said ahead of the Bangladesh game that teams that were able to utilise the different boundary dimensions on Australian grounds well would be successful in this T20 World Cup. The square boundaries at Adelaide Oval are pretty short, in the early 60-meters, compared to the massive straight boundaries. And KL Rahul used them superbly. Three of his four sixes were hit square, one picked up over deep square leg, and the other two slashed and sliced over the off side. And two of his three fours were slashed square as well.
