'King' Virat Kohli back to his BEST: TOP T20 international knocks of Indian legend, in PICS

Though this innings is the only one on this list that isn't a fifty, the impact of his knock in the Asia Cup game against Pakistan is invaluable and still continues to be rated as one of Virat Kohli's best innings in T20Is  India were chasing 84 for the win and on the face of it, it looked like MS Dhoni's men would cruise to a win. That was before Mohammad Amir burst through the top-order, removing the openers Rohit Sharma and Ajinkya Rahane for ducks in the first over and before Kohli guided team home by scoring 49 off 51 balls.

The 94 not out against West Indies is still Kohli's second-highest score in T20I cricket but if one were to go back to the start of his innings in Hyderabad, it didn't seem like it would end up being so. Chasing 208 for the win, Kohli was going at a run-a-ball 20 at the halfway stage when India needed another 119 runs to win but changed gears dramatically. (Photo: IANS)
