Virat Kohli powered India to an epic four-wicket win over arch-rivals Pakistan in their T20 World Cup Super12 encounter last night.

Pakistan recovered from a wobbly start to post a fighting 159 for eight.

India completed the chase in the last ball, with Kohli and Hardik Pandya doing the bulk of the scoring after a horror start to their innings.
