India and Bangladesh have played some great matches over the years in big tournaments. But on March 23 in 2016, they arguably played t👍he best match in the history of the ICC World T20 and easily the most thrilꦚling between these two sides.
MS Dhoni-led Team India🦩 snatched victไory from the jaws of defeat in the last over of the Super 10, Group 2 match in Bengaluru.
India batsmen had an uncharacteristically off-day in the middle and they were restricted to just 146/7 in 20 overs. Suresh Raina top-scored with 30 for India as Bangladesh bowlers did a magnificent job of keeping the🐼 big Indian names quiet.
Bangladesh batsmen did well to keep their team in♋ the contest for most parts of the game with Tamim Iqbal (35) and Sabbir Rahman (26) did most of the damage.
In the last over of the innings, Bangladesh need♔ed 11 runs off 6 deliveries with four wickets to spare. Mushfiqur Rahim slammed back to back boundaries on the second and third balls respectively off Hardik Pandya and Bangladesh needed just 2 runs off three balls.༺
However, Pandya then removed Mushfiqur and Mahm🐼udullah off successive deliveries — both batsmen were dismissed after playing rash shots and getting caught out at the mid-wicket boundary. Then, on the last ball of the over, MS Dhoni did a Usain Bolt as he ran his lungs out to run-out Mustafizur Rahman for a duck, after the batsman failed to make contact with the ball.
