WATCH: Kohli’s winning six against MI reminds fans of Dhoni’s WC winning shot in 2011

Kohli reminds fans of Dhoni's iconic WC six.

As Team India celebrated their 12th anniversary of the 2011 World Cup win on Sunday (April 2, 2023), Virat Kohli, who was part of the victorious Indian team of 2011, paid a fitting tribute to Dhoni.

With 6 runs needed off 3.5 overs to win against Mumbai Indians on Sunday, Virat struck a mammoth six, a shot very much similar to Dhoni’s iconic six in the final of Cricket World Cup 2011.

Fans noticed this immediately and tweeted heavily remembering that nostalgic moment:

The 2023 ODI World Cup will be played in India in October-November this year and Virat will be making his fourth World Cup appearance.
