5 Innings which helped Kohli become chase master

#3) India vs Sri Lanka, 11th Match CB Series 2012, Hobart

Virat Kohli's career's most famous chase:133* vs Sri Lanka 2012

The equation was pretty simple, to stay alive in the competition India had to chase whatever target Sri Lanka set in 40 overs or less. Bowling first, the Indian bowlers were smashed all around the park by the Lankan batsman. The Islanders set a target of 321 for India.

Kohli, in a post-match interview, stated that he had divided target in two chases of 20 overs of 160 runs each. The naivety of the statement was not seen in his approach as he raced away to arguably his most famous century to see India home and metamorphically drag his team back from the airport.

The crowning moment of the ton was when he smashed Malinga all around the park nonchalantly to raid 24 runs off his over, scoring 133* runs in the end.

RESULT: INDIA WON BY 7 WICKETS IN 36.4 OVERS || VIRAT KOHLI'S SCORE:133*(86)
