India and Bangladesh have played some great matches ov🥀er the years in big tournaments. But on March 23 in 2016, they arguably played the best match in the history of the IꦜCC World T20 and easily the most thrilling between these two sides.
MS Dhoni-led Te꧋am India snatched victory from the jaws of defeat in the last over of the Super 10, Group 2 match in Bengaluru.
India batsmen haꩵd 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 theiᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚr 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 needed 11 runs off 6 deliveries with four wickets to spare. Mushfiqur Rahim slammed back to back boundari🉐es on the second and third balls respectively off Hardik Pandya and Bangladesh needed just 2 runs off three balls.
However, Pandya t🌃hen removed Mushfiqur and Mahmudullah off successiv🧜e 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.
