#2 Virat/AB fury

Scoring 247 runs in a 50 over game provides a competitive target to defend. However, scoring that in a T20 game is another level of unreality entirely.

That is what Virat kohli and AB de Villiers did as they churned the ocean to weave a maelstrom that destroyed the Gujarat Lions.

Chris Gayle was out early, leaving AB de Villiers to partner up with Virat Kohli. While the latter was taking his time to build up his innings, the former came down all-guns-blazing from the very first ball itself.

In the end, the South African was unbeaten at 129 while playing just 52 balls. The Indian Test team captain also made an epic acceleration in the end as he also ended up with the century under his belt. Both of them also formed a record-breaking 229 runs partnership.
