Virat Kohli has long moved on from India's humiliating 10-wicket loss to arch-rivals Pakistan in their opening match of the 2021 T20 World Cup in Dubai. On that fateful day, Kohli acknowledged that Pakistan completely outplayed India, securing their inaugural victory in a World Cup game (both ODI World Cups and T20I World Cups). One year later, in the 2022 T20 World Cup, Virat avenged the 2021 defeat in style. He played a memorable knock of 82 not out off 53 balls to hand India a thrilling four-wicket win at the jam-packed Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG).
