Chasing a tricky target of 200 runs in their ICC Cricket World Cup opener against five-time champions Australia in Chennai on Sunday, India were in a precarious situation -- three down (2/3) in the second over. But Virat Kohli and KL Rahul stitched a 165-run stand for the fourth wicket to help India win the match by six wickets with 52 balls to spare. Kohli, who scored a measured 85 off 116 balls, was, however, given a life early in the innings -- a dropped catch off the bowling of Josh Hazlewood. (Video: ICC)
