Virat Kohli smashed a stunning 82 off 53 deliveries to help the Men in Blue to a famous victory at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground. Virat Kohli’s innings has been hailed as the greatest T20 knock by former Australian captain Greg Chappell and several other legends of the game.

Greg Chappell called Virat Kohli the greatest Indian batsman of his time and said his innings legitimized T20 cricket.

“The Bhagavad Gita is the holy ebook which is the synthesis of Hinduism. Literally translated it means “the song of God”. Kohli performed an innings that was as near a ‘music by god’ as has ever been performed in T20 cricket,” wrote Greg Chappell in his column for the Australian newspaper “Sydney Morning Herald”.

“Like a cat taking part in with a brand new ball of wool, Kohli teased and expertly picked aside an outstanding Pakistan bowling assault till it lay unraveled, spent and uncovered on the inexperienced carpet of the MCG.” “….It was an innings that showcased the art of batting like no other I have seen in a lifetime of cricket watching,” added the former Team India coach.

“Ironically, it was also the innings that legitimized T20 cricket as, dare I say it, an art form, more than any other I’ve seen in the last 15 years. No one can ever dismiss T20 cricket as mere entertainment again,” remarked Greg Chappell.

“None of the greats of bygone eras might have dismantled an opponent so brutally with out sacrificing the niceties of batting as Kohli did final Sunday night time,” he continued.

“Kohli is the most complete Indian batsman of my time. Only the greatest champions have the courage and the intelligence to transport their imagination beyond the mortal plane. Kohli has it. Perhaps only Tiger Pataudi has come close to transcending a similar stratosphere,” explained Greg Chappell.

Greg Chappell even cited the example of the legendary Adam Gilchrist to declare that Virat Kohli’s batting against Pakistan was even more enjoyable than the left-hander’s heroics in the past.

“I can consider lots of the greatest hitters within the fashionable recreation who might have achieved the same victory, and possibly did, however no one has ever executed it with pure batting expertise the way in which Kohli did towards Pakistan,” said he said.

“Only Adam Gilchrist has come close in the past, but that was even more esoteric than some of his most sublime efforts. It was simply impossible to look away. It gave me immense pleasure as it was played by one of the staunchest supporters and exponents of Test cricket of the last 145 years,” illustrated the Australian great.

“It was the day T20 cricket got here of age, and the nail-biting match was performed between two of the youthful nations of the lengthy type of the sport in entrance of 90,000 excited followers, most of them hundreds of kilometers from the nation wash. of their start,” Greg Chappell mentioned.

“We’ve known for some time that Kohli is in a rare class, but this has been done against the backdrop of a rather slim run over the last few years by his lofty standards. Not many are going to have to go through it in the brilliance that Virat has. Everyone had an opinion; most of it is centered on his eyes and/or his technique as having declined in some way. As someone who had been on that trail, I was pretty sure that wasn’t the case,” he said.

“This is probably the best T20 innings of his career, and it could also be one of the most satisfying in any format. He looked completely at home. He was in his element,” Greg Chappell concluded.
