00:00Turned by the man dismissed for 79.
00:03Yes, and Virat Kohli.
00:05Been quite sensational in Monday cricket.
00:09Excellent average at a very good strike rate.
00:16It's brilliant when it works out, doesn't it?
00:24Running the first one hard, Virat Kohli.
00:26Oh, my God!
00:29Terrific running this.
00:32He was safely home.
00:35Exactly what the doctor ordered.
00:38And both quick, these guys.
00:41Both of them play for Delhi as well.
00:43Virat Kohli at James Faulkner.
00:47Leaning into the drive.
00:49It's a real treat to watch.
00:51Virat Kohli in action.
00:53He's elegant and he's magnificent.
00:56That Virat Kohli has got some of the best hands in international cricket.
01:01You see here, he waits on the ball, but he throws his hands through it.
01:06It's terrific pace on the bat.
01:09Front step to the ball gives him that balance.
01:11It's just magnificent to watch the extension.
01:19Again, running the first one hard.
01:21Johnson's defeat in the deep.
01:23It's been sent back by Shikha Devon.
01:26Eight runs of the over.
01:27An approach.
01:37Saundering off.
01:38Athletic ability.
01:42But yeah, Finch just has it.
01:46Excellent use of defeat.
01:47Sheer brilliance from Virat Kohli.
01:55Sheer, we take this man for granted.
01:57He's just got such incredible hands.
02:02On a wicket which has been offering a little bit of movement for the spinner.
02:07A little slow.
02:09Incredible how he can just throw his hands for the ball.
02:11A little bit of a shuffle.
02:17Catches the call.
02:19But he's gone over the top.
02:21Using the bottom hand to good effect.
02:23Virat Kohli is on the roll.
02:29Kohli's just come in and started to take the place of Rohit Sharma.
02:34Hitting boundaries at will.
02:36Excellent fielding.
02:46Dance through the ball.
02:48This is big.
02:50This is massive.
02:53Brings up the 200 for India.
02:56Well, what's this man doing in the dressing room?
02:59Was he in the net?
03:02Ho, ho, ho.
03:03Picked the bones out of that one.
03:05And that's gone big.
03:08That's a crowd catch for sure.
03:11Just immense power there.
03:14Completely disrespecting Xavier Doherty there.
03:21Straight away, as I said, he's back into the four and six mode right from the outset.
03:27So much pressure on the Australian captain here.
03:30So much pressure on the fielding side.
03:33What's going to give Shiv?
03:35They need to go at this rate.
03:36Australia went at exactly the same rate here.
03:38Had some terrific overs at this stage of the game.
03:43Beauty.
03:44He can not only hit them big.
03:46He can not only hit them big.
03:47Deft touches as well.
03:49Well, he's becoming a master at this.
03:51Especially in the runches.
03:53Without Kohli.
03:54Got to be a circuit breaker here, Xavier Doherty.
03:58Can't get wrapped into bowling.
04:00Too many different varieties.
04:01He's been good thus far.
04:02Keeping it simple.
04:07Talking about this before.
04:08Not trying too much variety.
04:11Just let someone like Kohli play the big shots.
04:18It's more the lengthy water ball as a spinner.
04:22Young legs.
04:23He'll pick up two.
04:24He'll take the single without Kohli.
04:33He'll also keep strike again.
04:38Chase to field.
04:39Deep fine leg coming in.
04:40There's a man at long on.
04:45Works it away splendidly.
04:47Fine leg inside the ring.
04:49The string in line was Faulkner.
04:51And not to miss out is Virat Kohli.
04:54What's he thinking here, do you think, Shiv?
04:59With no protection square.
05:02No point.
05:03No third man.
05:06He's almost giving in to the fact, I think,
05:08that he's just going to strike the ball down the ground.
05:11What lines do you bow, though, with this field?
05:15Well, I think he should be looking at around off stump.
05:19And maybe a fuller length as well.
05:21Chase Mars will be back for length.
05:22That gives the batsman enough time to get used to the angle.
05:27Do yourself a little bit of room on the leg side.
05:31But this is sensible batting as well.
05:36Now the quick single.
05:39Nine runs of the...
05:40Third man inside the ring.
05:46So his fine leg.
05:47With just a number of tied overs.
05:56Just reducing the ones and the twos.
05:59Trying to stop as many of those fours and sixes as they can through this stage.
06:03It's a difficult task, though, Shiv.
06:05We've seen that.
06:05There's been lots of discussion.
06:06Running the second.
06:10Walked away nicely.
06:11It's a good field set.
06:12Johnson in the deep will be just a single.
06:16Bricket.
06:19Down the track.
06:20Virat Kohli.
06:26Virat Kohli calls for two.
06:28And should get it easily.
06:29Just a little bit.
06:34Oh, what a shot.
06:37He's batting magnificently.
06:39Now he's got to keep his cool because there's some needle out there.
06:42Looking to get under the skin.
06:45For Virat Kohli.
06:47And at a time when he's batting like a champion.
06:51Yes, the batting power plays on.
06:53So, not much protection for the bowler.
06:55And therefore, not much room for error.
06:57Not much margin for error.
06:59Just a little short.
07:00Just a little wide.
07:01And he's picked his spot to perfection.
07:10Then played away.
07:11Sensively for a single.
07:13It's been a sublime touch.
07:15Virat Kohli.
07:19He finds the fielder.
07:20Chance of a run out.
07:21Direct hit was needed to get the run.
07:23In the end, in any case.
07:26Kumar as well.
07:28Oh, he's got that fine into the boundary.
07:31Fine legs up in the circle.
07:33And yet another half century for Virat Kohli.
07:37This fifth half century in a row.
07:41So, just carrying on that rich green of form.
07:47And it's come of just 31 balls.
07:50He's playing another blinder.
07:51Consecutive half century.
07:54Drives on the offside.
07:56Chipping down the track.
07:58Will get to.
07:59Really is taking the attack.
08:04Crash through the offside once again.
08:06Slower delivery.
08:07He took his time.
08:09And once again, the placement spot on.
08:12The 250 comes up for India.
08:17Yes, what a lovely shot this.
08:19Back of the hand stuff from Korkner.
08:23But a little bit of width offered.
08:24And Kohli quick to seize on that.
08:27And now, the required runs coming down to two figures.
08:3398 needed from 75 for India.
08:43Drives again.
08:45This time finds the fielder.
08:46He'll get the signal.
08:46Right now, we'll be aware of it.
08:53It's quite happy to just.
09:16It's working it on the onside.
09:28We get now, Korkner.
09:31Really quite prepared to go down the track.
09:38That's driven.
09:39Apesh over cover.
09:40Pulled.
09:48Pulled.
09:51And into the boundary.
09:54Picked up the length quickly.
09:55Midone was up.
10:01He does play the full shot well.
10:04Pulled at about 138 kilometers per hour.
10:07But didn't come up as high as Mitchell Johnson wanted.
10:12More like a tennis shot of forehand over there.
10:15Double-handed forehand.
10:17Very well executed.
10:18All along the ground.
10:28More runs on the onside.
10:30Another boundary.
10:31Really getting into good positions, Virat Kohli, to play the shot.
10:40The first one went between Midone and Midwicket.
10:43And this one, a lot squarer.
10:47Well, Johnson, when he's rolling around the wicket, doesn't have the extra speed for some reason.
10:52And he's got to say that it wasn't exactly the greatest of efforts.
11:01It's past the keeper.
11:03It's all going in there's way.
11:05Three on the trot.
11:1376 now, Kohli, of just 45.
11:15Well, I think he was quick to realize that the previous two short balls being hammered for boundary,
11:24this one will be pitched up.
11:25So he was ready for it.
11:26Just threw his bat at it.
11:29The previous over was a quiet over from Mitchell Johnson, but not this one.
11:3414 runs already.
11:37And two balls still left.
11:38There's two balls to go.
11:4270 needed now from 56.
11:58Quietly takes the single.
12:01From around the wicket.
12:05That's a good stop.
12:06And it does happen.
12:14Now he's got it.
12:15Fine leg was inside the circle.
12:16Watson will be killing himself here.
12:18Just drifted down the leg side.
12:20All it needed was a little tickle.
12:22300 comes up with six overs left.
12:26I just wonder, you mentioned that the ball might be reversing a little bit.
12:30He's holding it in his right hand as he's running into the ball.
12:32Oh, what a shot.
12:38Where does this man produce these?
12:41Mid-off, mid-off inside the circle.
12:43He's hit a ball that's 145 kilometers an hour on the rise.
12:47Well, he's been a cyclone, hasn't he?
12:52Right through the series.
12:53He's just come in and hit boundaries at will.
12:56He's had the disadvantage in these last 14 or so balls to be off strike.
13:00But no mistake there.
13:04He simply crunched that.
13:08Gee, it seems to me that could be an easy shot to play.
13:12Still round the wicket.
13:15No, didn't time it at all.
13:16But he looked to play that shot.
13:23Went to a square.
13:25Did he?
13:28Neil keeps strike with a single.
13:30Seven, it's good.
13:30Always balled out though.
13:31Johnson, two for 70.
13:35Now, he's got all of that.
13:37And that's gone long enough for four.
13:39So it started well.
13:41Virat Kohli goes up to 95.
13:43And by attacking the first ball, he's put the pressure straight back on Faulkner.
13:48That's simply magnificent batting.
13:51And also a really good decision
13:53to actually strike away on the first few balls of the over.
13:58As you've just mentioned there,
13:59it's just put so much pressure on a bowler
14:01if you can get your first one or two balls away for a boundary.
14:07Haynes Faulkner will be now thinking,
14:09gee, I've got to peg it back here.
14:10One of those memories of the Dhoni-O were coming in
14:14because he's got ball in hand, not bad.
14:17Good ball.
14:20Oh, that is a stunner.
14:23I don't think Faulkner's done too much wrong here
14:25because he's followed Kohli again.
14:27He's just at the very last minute.
14:29He's changed his shot.
14:31And he's decided, I'm going through onside.
14:32Well, I'll tell you what he's decided.
14:36He's decided to get his right foot and put it flat to the floor here,
14:40all over the accelerator.
14:48Wow.
14:49I mean, his cover drive's great, but his onside play is magnificent too.
14:5327 from 15.
14:57Nicked it fine for four.
15:0161 ball century for Virat Kohli.
15:04Chase.
15:05That a better young man chasing totals in international cricket at the moment.
15:08The third fastest century by an Indian.
15:13He holds a record himself.
15:16He's got it down to 23 from 14.
15:20Oh, what a play.
15:22Third fastest in 1700.
15:25For such a young man to have such good plays with the stage of the innings.
15:29And, in fact, all the way through the innings, he enjoys it.
15:33He deserves it.
15:34That's a great celebration.
15:36But he also knows that he can't throw it away here.
15:41Australia's still in the game.
15:47And a little C.
15:4962 balls.
15:501700.
15:511100.
15:54Well, Kohli's gone onside.
15:56It's in the gap.
15:57It's in the gap for four.
15:59Well, well, well.
16:01At the moment, I don't think Kohli is noticing the fielders.
16:06Well, he's absolutely unstoppable.
16:09Has been for all 63 deliveries.
16:12He had a little quiet punch when MS Stoney came to the wicket and he got no strike.
16:16But since then, he's completely dominated the match.
16:24That was a bottom-handed flick, wasn't it?
16:29You know, we keep saying it all the time, but this young man can bat.
16:3416 from 11.
16:35Oh, that's a good ball.
16:37He'll still sneak the leg by in.
16:39India sneak a boundary in here.
16:42And he's got the boundary.
16:44He's got a boundary.
16:45He just knows instinctively where to play.
16:47This is a very, very special innings from Virat Kohli.
16:51Fifty of the partnerships come up in 36 balls.
16:54And India are motoring home here.
16:56Asha and Watson in the break.
16:58Said it's 350 good enough.
16:59He said he thought 362 was good enough in Jaipur.
17:01Well, he's just unstoppable.
17:06As I said before, there's no words can describe that.
17:10Very tight on the front foot crease line as well.
17:13Is there another player in the world cricket who chases his down totals like this man does?
17:25It's almost like a Hall of Fame.
17:26And look what it's done to the field.
17:28Look at that.
17:29You've got, for a medium-paced bowler, a fast-medium bowler,
17:32you've got deep mid-wicket, a very deep straight mid-wicket, and a long on.
17:36You're only allowed four outside.
17:38So the fourth is at long off.
17:40No, they've changed their mind.
17:42He just went and felt the boundary rope and came back.
17:46So really, two changes and nothing's changed.
17:53Twelve from this over so far.
17:54Eight needed.
17:57Keeps going, keeps going.
18:00Are they going to challenge the throw?
18:02Yes, they are.
18:02It's a young man.
18:03He's running quickly.
18:05Fourteen of the over.
18:06Is this the over for India?
18:08Six needed now from six.
18:09It's three.
