"If anyone has seen a better player across all the different formats then I haven’t seen him .. @imVkohli is incredible ... Loved his ‘let the Bat do the talking ‘ celebration !! #AUSvIND #Perth," Vaughan tweeted.
Takes great catches to win Test matches ... And the #Kohli catch was a beauty ... Bounced off his finger into the hand ... OUT ... Good decision ... #AUSvIND
