Adelaide 2014: Captain Kohli's blaze in the shadow of Phil Hughes
Manage episode 270429817 series 2781316
India's tour of Australia in the 2014-15 season was plunged into despair when Phil Hughes died, after being struck on the head by a bouncer, just as India were preparing to leave for Australia's shores. The players went to Macksville for the funeral, the Brisbane Test was shifted to Adelaide, and when play began, India were without Mahendra Singh Dhoni, their captain.
Standing in, Virat Kohli led the team his own way, going for broke in pursuit of victory, only for India to lose. David Warner and Michael Clarke scored emotional runs, Nathan Lyon proved he could bowl Australia to victory in the final innings and Australia won a Test that meant so much to the entire country.
For Bharat Sundaresan and Anand Vasu, the Test, the city and the occasion were memorable in unique ways.
