New Delhi. The much awaited match of the Indian team in the Super 8 of the ICC T20 World Cup was full of excitement. Team India captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and decided to bat first against Afghanistan. The opening pair of Virat Kohli and Hit Man failed once again but Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya batted in such a way that the players in the dugout got a chance to celebrate a lot. Hardik hit such a six that even Kohli was surprised to see it.
