When it comes to excitement and intensity, none of the rivalries can match the India-Pakistan one. These two teams faced each other in the World T20 in front of a galaxy of stars which included celebrities across the borders.

After restricting Pakistan to a modest total of 118 in 18 overs, India were off to a terrible start losing three quick wickets. Once again Virat Kohli came to the rescue as he came up with a master-class under pressure and helped his side beat their arch-rivals by 4 wickets.

When he reached his fifty, Kohli pointed to the stands where Sachin Tendulkar was applauding the knock just like everyone in the stadium and Kohli bowed down to Sachin, symbolising the respect that he has for the legend.
