#3 Virat Kohli, 2017 ICC Champions Trophy final
In his first ICC tournament as captain of the Indian cricket team, Virat Kohli took India to the finals against their arch rivals Pakistan.Having defeated them comprehensively in the group stage encounter, there was a lot of pressure on Virat Kohli and his men to notch up another victory and defend their title as well.After winning the toss and opting to field first, the Pakistani batsmen took the attack to the Indian bowlers and put on a huge total of 338 in their allotted 50 overs. While people expected the Indian batsmen to chase down the total, Mohammed Amir had other ideas in mind.After removing Rohit Sharma in the very first over, Kohli was looking uncomfortable against him as well. In the 3rd ball of the 3rd over of the match, Kohli was given a life as dropped a sitter of Amir’s bowling.The Indian fans thought that might go on to be the turning point of the match with Kohli scoring a match-winning century but it was not to be as he was dismissed off the very next delivery.
