However, during his innings, Virat played an usual cricketing shot which remined everyone of South African legend AB de Villiers. Now de Villiers himself has given his reaction to this shot.

In the 6th over, Andrew Tie got the much-needed breakthrough for Australia by getting KL Rahul out, who departed after scoring 30 runs off 22 balls. After the partnership for the first-wicket was broken, Virat joined Dhawan in the middle. The Indian captain contributed with a quick 24-ball 40 run innings.
