It was a one-man show all the way as the 29-year-old produced yet another masterful innings to keep his team afloat in their first outing at the SuperSport Park.

Other than Kohli, opener Murali Vijay (46) and Ravichandran Ashwin (38) showed some resistance, while all the other Indian batsmen fell like nine pins.

The story of the second innings was even worse as chasing 287 to win, the visitors could manage just 151 with Rohit Sharma's 47 being the highest.

Seven Indian batsmen including Kohli, KL Rahul and Pandya could not even manage to get into double figures.
