Sehwag prematurely celebrating his hundred which was denied by Randiv's no-ball

In the third ODI of a triangular series against Sri Lanka, India was cruising to victory, chasing a paltry target of 171. India needed five runs to win, and Virender Sehwag was at 95. Off-spinner Suraj Randiv came on to bowl the 35th over. Four byes levelled the score, and India needed just one run to win.

Randiv bowled a clear no-ball, and the umpires declared India's win. Sehwag was left stranded at 95 despite scoring a six on that ball!

The Indian team was furious with the Sri Lankan team and Randiv for their unsportsmanlike behaviour. Randiv later apologised to Sehwag, and the match referee slapped a one-match ban on him.
