3. Free hit-byes

Virat Kohli’s masterclass performance in what turned out to be one of the greatest India-Pakistan clashes stunned everyone. The final over of India’s run chase was dramatic. With 13 required off three balls, Kohli smashed a six off a waist-high full toss, resulting in a no-ball.
It was followed by a wide, which extended the free-hit ball. Nawaz bowled Kohli out on the next ball, but because it was a free hit, the former India captain was safe. As the ball trickled down towards third-man, Virat and Dinesh Karthik ran three byes.
This is pure cricketing genius. #ViratKohli and DK run for three runs after the ball hits the stump on a no ball and richoted towards boundary line.
