It was not the back-in-form Rohit Sharma or Shikhar Dhawan's solid start against Pakistan in the Champions Trophy tie at Edgbaston that got kudos from captain Virat Kohli. Yuvraj Singh, who smashed 53 off 32 balls, batting at No. 4, was Kohli's hero. Kohli said: "The way Yuvi batted, it was the game-changing innings.
