5 thrilling last over finishes in ICC Tournaments

#5. 2016 World T20 Final - England v West Indies

The most dramatic ICC World T20 final ever

Although West Indies were touted as favourites due to their big hitting prowess, England were probably the more consistent team in the tournament. Due to the dew factor, West Indies elected to bowl first after winning the toss.

England got off to a terrible start. Both the openers were dismissed inside the first 2 overs. Joe Root and Jos Buttler played crucial knocks of 54 and 36 respectively to help England reach a respectable 155.

No team had chased such a big score to win a final and the West Indies, with their strong batting line-up, had their task cut out.

West Indies got off to a terrible start losing the "Universe Boss" Chris Gayle, Johnson Charles and Lendl Simmons inside first three overs. Marlon Samuels and DJ Bravo put on a decent stand of 75. With the departure of Andre Russel and captain Darren Sammy, it looked all but over for West Indies.

The Ben Stokes Brain Fade

West Indies needed 19 off the last over. Although Marlon Samuels and Carlos Braithwaite were at the crease, the victory looked challenging.

What unfolded next was something that had never been witnessed in an ICC Final before.

Stokes dished up a half-volley which was clobbered by Braithwaite over square leg for a six. The next ball was a good length delivery which was smeared over long on for a gigantic six. The third delivery was again a good length delivery which was smashed over long off for a six.

With 1 run needed, the West Indies started their champion dance and the last ball was massacred into the deep mid wicket which gave West Indies their second World T20 title.

Braithwaite scored a magnificent 34 off 10 balls and Stokes had a brain fade bowling one length delivery after another to help the big man hit those sixes at will.
