19.10.2023 - 14:55 sports.ndtv.com

Indian cricket team star batter Virat Kohli achieved an impossible feat by helping India score 14 runs in just one legal delivery during the Cricket World Cup 2023 match against Bangladesh on Thursday.

The feat was achieved against Hasan Mahmud during the 13th over of the India innings when Kohli took advantage of the bowler's lack of discipline.

Kohli came out to bat after the dismissal of India skipper Rohit Sharma and scored two runs off his very first ball. However, the umpire adjudged it a no-ball and the veteran batter slammed the resultant free-hit for a boundary through mid-on.

Unfortunately, it was a no-ball once again and Kohli was awarded another free-hit which he heaved over the long-on fielder for a massive six.

Former Indian cricketer and commentator Aakash Chopra feels that all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja should have been given the 'Man of the Match' award for his exceptional performance against South Africa in the ongoing Cricket World Cup 2023. Jadeja with his slow left-arm orthodox ripped apart the South African batting set-up at the iconic Eden Gardens, in Kolkata. His incoming angled deliveries sometimes stayed straight or spun away from the batters making it hard for the opposition to understand and adjust to the surface. He ended with a five-wicket haul conceding just 33 runs in his 9-over spell. The left-handed all-rounder was also handy with the bat, scoring 29 runs in 15 balls in the end to power India to a score of 326-5. Even though Jadeja stood out with both the bat as well as the ball, Virat Kohli was awarded the MOM following his record-breaking ton against the Proteas.
