NEW DELHI: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday hailed India’s four-wicket victory over Australia in the semifinal of the Champions Trophy in Dubai, saying Rohit Sharma led the team brilliantly with Virat Kohli adding his signature flair.
Kohli’s measured knock of 84 steered India into their fifth Champions Trophy final with a clinical four-wicket win over an under-strength Australia in the first last-four clash on Tuesday.
India’s victory ensured that the final of the eight-team competition will now be held in Dubai instead of Lahore, the original host for the marquee clash to be played on Sunday. PTI
