#5 – Pandya and Dhoni deliver last ball win for India
The equation came down to 11 from the last over. Dhoni had no other option but to give the ball to Hardik Pandya to pull off a miracle as Mahmudullah and Mushfiqur Rahim awaited.
It looked like Bangladesh were on the verge of reaching the target as Rahim hit two consecutive boundaries to leave them only 2 runs adrift with still 3 deliveries left. There was a long discussion between Dhoni, Nehra and Pandya as the intensity increased.
What followed was incredible as Rahim suffered a brain freeze and found Dhawan at mid-wicket. Mahmudullah who is known for controlling crunch situations dispatched a full toss high into the air only for Jadeja to pluck off a marvelous catch.
With 2 runs required from the final delivery, Pandya hit the good length area and Shuvagata Hom could not connect. Dhoni who had removed one glove swooped in with vigor and ran Mustafizur out as Team India sealed a memorable victory to bring relief to the Bangalore crowd.
