The 2011 world cup was a tournament that will have a chapter of its own in Indian cricket's history books.

The Indian squad had a mixture of both experience and young players. This was going to be a tournament that led to a phase change in Indian cricket as it was the last World Cup for some of the senior players.

Virat Kohli came into the World Cup with some good performances in the South Africa tour. He scored a century against Bangladesh in that inaugural match along with Virender Sehwag who started destroying the Bangladeshi bowling attack from the first ball. But, Kohli fell short of runs as the tournament progressed. He only managed to score a 50+ only once in next 8 matches. But when it mattered the most Virat Kohli came out and scored a resilient 35 in the final before he got out to Tillakaratne Dilshan.

Virat Kohli's 35 runs in an 83 run partnership with Gautam Gambhir steadied the Indian innings in the final after the early collapse of Sachin and Sehwag. That innings launched Virat Kohli, the player who will not succumb to pressure during a run chase.

The 2013 Champions Trophy was a memorable one because of the way a young team led by MS Dhoni played throughout the tournament, even though there were many concerns about the new opening pair of Shikhar Dhawan and Rohit Sharma and an inexperienced bowling unit. But, to everyone's surprise, they played wonderfully throughout the tournament.

Due to rain, the final between India and England was reduced to a 20 over match. Both the Indian openers failed to make an impression. But India's dependable Virat Kohli made an important contribution of 43 runs on a rain-affected Birmingham pitch which helped India put a decent total on the board. Eventually, India went on to win the tournament.
