'Kohli Did it First': Taylor Swift's Biggest Concert at MCG is Reminding Fans of That Iconic Knock

The Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) holds a cherished memory for Indian cricket fans, where one of India’s greatest players delivered an innings that may well be their finest in T20 cricket. This unforgettable moment came in 2022, when Virat Kohli was in a league of his own, batting like a force of nature, defying all logic. His performance was sheer brilliance, highlighted by two monumental sixes to close the 19th over. As Kohli knelt down, so did every fan, witnessing his power reminiscent of his iconic moment in Mohali back in 2016. The image of him punching the turf, then standing up to be mobbed by teammates, before finding a moment of solitude under the night sky with his finger raised, is forever imprinted in the hearts of Indians.

The MCG has since become synonymous with this indelible moment. So, when news broke of Taylor Swift garnering attention for drawing the largest-ever crowd for a female singer at the MCG, Kohli’s loyalists swiftly rallied to remind the world of the ground’s true icon – Virat Kohli, a name that refuses to fade.

“She can’t top this one,” resounded across platforms, a defiant declaration in response to news of Swift’s record-breaking concert.

The ensuing exchanges were nothing short of exhilarating!

Meanwhile, Taylor Swift, accustomed to performing to sold-out audiences worldwide, found herself rendered speechless by the overwhelming reception in Australia.

On the 16th of February 2024, nearly 1,00,000 fervent fans converged upon the Melbourne Cricket Ground to witness the global sensation in her most monumental concert to date – an experience that left even Swift herself in awe.

“If I seem a little bit like I’m losing my mind over the fact that there are 96,000 people here tonight … it’s because it’s true,” Swift exclaimed to the crowd. A fan captured the momentous occasion on video, showcasing the sheer magnitude of the spectacle, while others captured Swift’s stunned silence as she absorbed the electrifying atmosphere.
