Hyderabad: Greats of the game and former cricketers Irfan Pathan, Sunil Gavaskar, and Krishnamachari Srikkanth were seen hopping, exulting, and celebrating India's win against arch-rivals Pakistan during the nerve-racking contest at the 90 thousand plus packed Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) on Sunday.
The camera captured all three of them anxiously until the last ball when R Ashwin was on the crease. Aswhin then hit the ball for a boundary that led to all of them and the crowd behind them jumping, giving high-fives and celebrating India famous victory over Pakistan.

In front of a packed 90,000-plus crowd at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Kohli redeemed himself with a magical 82 not out of 53 balls as India snatched victory from the jaws of defeat in one of their most memorable wins against Pakistan. Virat Kohli's sensational unbeaten 82-run knock in India's epic four-wicket win in the T20 World Cup opener was hailed as one-of-a-kind innings by the cricketing fraternity.
