#20 - 107 vs Australia at Chennai, 2013
While this test match is greatly remembered for MS Dhoni's first and only double hundred in Tests, it was Virat Kohli that actually set the platform that enabled the then-Indian captain to kick on and get his double century.
Batting at number 5, Kohli walked in when the team was in a spot of bother: after making 380 in the first innings, Australia had reduced India to 105-3 and James Pattinson was bowling a fiery spell.
Kohli was able to construct meaningful partnerships with Sachin Tendulkar and MS Dhoni, and contributed significantly to India's recovery.
