Ashwin have to defend 15 runs in the last over and two englandian bowlers on the strike and non strike.and match goes to the last ball and 6 runs needed and batsman miss the ball and won his first champions trophy title.before 2013 india won an another champions trophy but there was a twist.

India scored 264 runs in 50 overs and new zealand batsmans play well and chased 265 runs in 49.1 over. Now I am saying about 2002 champions trophy.it was India vs SL.
In the finals day Sri Lanka bat first but rain entered in that match and that final was decided to play next day means reseve day
Match starts and Sri Lanka bat first and scored 222/7 and gave a small target of 223.
But when India at a position of 38/1 then again rain comes and ICC decided to announce these both teams are winner.no one actual winner.now move to virat Kohli's international carrier of 2013.

Twist is this Australian batsmans scored 359 runs they think we already won.but that day Sikhar dhawan, Rohit Sharma, and Virat kohli.these three helps to chase this target.
In which Sikhar dhawan 95 runs he was only 5 runs far from his century but he was out on 95.then virat kohli came and virat and Rohit build partnership firstly virat kohli completed his century in just 52 balls which is fastest of that time by an Indian in ODI formats and lastly rohit sharma 141* and virat kohli 100*
Win this match by 9 wickets.this was a soking match and series this was a 7 match series. In the 7th last and final match of this series both india and Australia won 2-2 matches and 2 matches are washed out due to rain delay.Last match was the series decider.in that last match india bat first and Indian batsmans scorecard look a like
Sikhar dhawan 60 runs,virat kohli 0 runs,

Shane Watson 49 runs where 2 fours and 6 sixes include.Brad haddin 40 runs.Adam voges 4 runs.phillip huges 23 runs. George Bailey 4 runs.Aaron finch 5 runs.Clint mckay
18 runs.glenn maxwell 60 runs in just 22 balls where 3 fours and 7 sixes include.
Nathon couter-nile 0 runs.there was a collapse seen in Australian batting which is 211 runs for 8 wickets but then james faulkner came and stops his team collapse.
James faulkner who was a baller that day what a batting he thinks only win and he scored his Fastest century in just 59 balls.
A great innings that day he scored 116 in just 73 balls in which 11 fours and 6 sixes include
He was alone fighter for Australia that day but he out and his team All out on 326 runs.
And they lose that match by 47 runs. And india won that series by 3-2. Rohit Sharma got the player of the match and player of the series.

No one team is made this world record that is winning Eliminator, Qualifier2 and the final
But SRH did this.
Firstly in the Qualifier 1 this RCB vs GL.
GL bat first and scored 158 runs in 20 overs
RCB batting start Chris Gayle, virat kohli and Shane Watson these are go flop. Shockingly virat kohli whose is this prime year he was out on 0 runs 2 balls. But then ab devillers come and hit 5 fours and 5 sixes scores 79 runs and won this match to RCB.
And make the man of the match.
In the Eliminator match it was SRH vs KKR.

148/5 (Yuvraj Singh, 16.1 overs).
158/6 (Naman Ojha, 17.1 overs).
174/7(Bipul Sharma, 18.4 overs).
Due to the the ben cutting when SRH struggled 148/5 then he starts hitting and match last over was of Shane Watson.
Ben cutting on the strike he hits first ball he hits four, second ball he hits 2 runs, third ball he hits a 111 meter step out six, fourth ball one more six and the fifth ball once again six and last ball dot. He hits 24 runs because SRH scored 208 runs.

In ipl 2017, Virat Kohli captaining royal challengers Bangalore( RCB), had a relatively subdued season season compared to his record breaking 2016,
Battling injuries and inconsistent form,
Managing only 308 runs in 10 matches with 2 fifties, a stark contrast to his previous year, yet still showing glimpses of brilliance for RCB, finishing with a strike rate of 122.22 showing his usual power hitting with 27 fours
And 11 sixes. who ultimately failed to make the playoffs, highlighting a dip after his phenomenal peak but reinforcing his role as a key player, finishing as a mid season captain due to ab devillers injury, rcb struggled overall.
Now i am saying about a match for which rcb trolled for always that is 49 all out now I am describing about that match.
Kkr bat first and scored 131 runs in 20 overs a small target for RCB. But when rcb batting there's seen a collapse. No one rcb batsman can score double digit runs
Chris Gayle 7 runs
Virat Kohli 0 run
Mandeep Singh 1 runs
Ab devillers 8 runs
Kedhar Jadhav 9 runs
Struat binny 8 runs
Pawan negi 2 runs
Tymal mills 2 runs

And Rcb all out on 49 runs and trolled for always always.
Kkr won the match by 82 runs.
Now I am saying about virat kohli ipl carrier of 2017.
2016 saw kohli score an unprecedented 973 runs with 4 centuries, in a single season,
Making him and absolute phenomenon.
Before the 2017 season, kohli sustained a
Shoulder injury, while playing for India against Australia, affecting his preparation and form for the IPL.
In essence, 2017 was a year of recallibration
For kohli in the ipl. A period where he battled physical challenges and a dip in his otherwise extraordinary form, yet still showing glimpses of his batting brilliance with four half centuries for half centuries.
In 2018, virat kohli had a phenomenal international cricket year, scoring a combined 2,735 runs with 11 centuries across all formats. Cementing his status as
World's leading batsman, earning him the ICC cricketer of the year and Test cricketer of the year awards, leading india to a historic first ever Test series in Australia, despite some struggles with the Swinging ball in England earlier in the year, showcasing his
Incredible dominance, especially in ODIs
Where he averaged over 130.
•England tour: kohli scored a massive 593 runs in 10 innings at nearly 59, but faced vulnerablities against the Swinging ball
Outside off stump, a recurring issues from 2014, though he still excelled.
•Australia tour( late 2018): He silenced critics with his aggressive batting, scoring his 25th test century(123) in Perth and a crucial 82 in Melbourne, leading india to a historic 2-1 series win, a carrier highlights.
Kohli was in a league of his own, scoring 1,202 runs in 14 ODI innings with 6 centuries

He was named the ICC ODI player of the year for 2018.

He became the first player to win the Sir garfield sobers trophy(Cricketer of the year)
ICC test Cricketer of the year, and ICC Odi player of the year in the same year 2018.
2018 was a landmark year where kohli conquered new frontiers(Australia test),
Overcame challenges (England), and set new benchmarks in ODI cricket, soldifying
His position as argubly the world's best batsmen.
In ipl 2018, virat kohli played for RCB as captain, scoring 530 runs in 14 matches at a strong average of 52.50 with a strike rate of
142.44, including 50's and,Contributing significantly despite rcb not reaching the finals, soldifying his role as a
Consistent runs scorer in the league for RCB.
Highest score: 84 or 90+( from other years,
But the 2018 specific snippet mentions 84 as a high).
The season saw KKR's sunil Narine as the MVP and Rishab pant as the emerging player, but kohli remained as a top performer.
Despite Kohli's strong individual performance, RCB did not qualify in the 2018 season, finishing sixth position.
In 2019, virat kohli was at the peak of his carrer, becoming the only batsman in the world to simultaneously hold an average of

After this scorecard Ms dhoni was very trolled because he couldn't finish the match but you see in the scorecard whose mistake
Kl Rahul, rohit sharma, and virat Kohli(C)
These three batsmans scored only 1-1 run
Rishab pant, Dinesh Karthik and hardik pandya these three of two scored runs but they Rishab pant and Hardik pandya dot a lots of balls this is a biggest mistake which is result as required run rate go so high.
These three batsmans played 143 balls and made only 70 runs.
Then in second last over when 25 runs needed in just 10 balls then Ms dhoni hit the ball and started running he completed 1 runs and whole taking 2 runs he is only 1 inch far from the line and Martin guptill that throw goes back dhoni in the pavallion and this moment virat kohli, Ms dhoni these both are crying 😭 because now 24 runs in 9 balls and batters are yujvendra chahal and Jasprit Bumrah they couldn't make 24 runs and india lost this match by 18 runs this is the emotional for the Indian team and india team fans. And new zealand goes to the finals. In the finals I not define briefly.
Kane Williamson won the toss and decided to bat first and new zealand made 241 runs in 50 overs and england scored 241 runs in 50 overs in which ben stokes 84*.
Then in the super over jos buttler and ben stokes come to bat, ben stokes 8* and jos buttler 7* help England to made 15 runs.
New zealand batsman in super over.
Jimmy Neesham 13 runs
Martin guptill 1 runs
New zealand made same 15 runs in the super over, and due to a rule of ICC.
England won this final by boundary count in that match. And they won first time ODI World Cup winner.
And after the semi final run out very trolls ms dhoni that he couldn't finish the match.
So Ms dhoni decides to retirement and 15 august 2020, 7:27 he was retired from international cricket. You think Ms dhoni played match after semi-final match but he doesn't play any other match. A man whose carrer start by run out and end by run out.
Now comes on virat kohli international carrier in 2019 we are already read his ODI carrer in that year now move to test career in 2019.

Particularly in Tests and ODI formats, and notably failed to score an international century throughout the year. This year marked the beginning of a prolonged
"Century drought" for kohli in international cricket.
