India vs South Africa: Virat Kohli was on fire against the Proteas and the skipper unbeaten 72 helped his side win by 7 wickets.

While there were many memorable moments like the stunning catches by Kohli and David Miller, a classic shot by the Indian captain has got the attention of everyone.

Since a war of words between Kagiso Rabada and Kohli, all eyes were on the two great cricketers.

During the 17th over, when Rabada strayed on the pads of Kohli, the captain picked the length early and flicked the ball for a six. He hit the ball with such ease that made the commentators say, "Just a fick"

WATCH:

Kohli also surpasses Rohit Sharma to become the highest run-scorer in T20I. Kohli now has 2,441 runs from 66 innings to Rohit’s 2,434 from 89 innings. 

After winning the Man of the Match award, Kohli credited the bowlers and said, "Bowlers showed a lot of character. The pitch was very good and they (South Africa) got off to a good start so it was an outstanding effort from the bowler to pull the game back from us,” he said at the post-match press conference.

“That’s exactly what we’re looking at, try out new people and see who stands up under pressure,” he added.

Brief scores: South Africa 149/5 in 20 overs (Quinton de Kock 52, Temba Bavuma 49; Deepak Chahar 2/22) vs India 151/3 in 19 overs (Virat Kohli 72 not out, Shikhar Dhawan 40).
