In the 2022 T20 World Cup, Kohli smashed a marvelous six against Rauf. In that match, Kohli played one of the finest innings of his cricketing career. He remained unbeaten on 82 and guided India to a stunning four-wicket victory.
It was also one of the most memorable matches in the history of cricket with no one knowing who would be the winner till the last ball. Kohli’s masterclass and his stylish six against Rauf will always be remembered while recalling the best matches between the two countries.
