ICC T20 World Cup : Shocker from Michael Hussey sends Pakistan packing

In the semi final of the ICC T20 cricket world cup, Pakistan set Australia a tough job of 191 runs. Chasing it, Australia lost their way time and again and needed 18 runs to win off the last over, with just 3 wickets safe and Michael Hussey was at the non strikers end.

So as every Australian would have wished, it was a single off the first ball to get Hussey back on strike.

5 balls, 17 runs needed. Now come – Six, Six and a four off the next 3 balls and Hussey had already tied the scores with 2 balls to go! Australia needed one run to win and Hussey hit one humongous six to win the game for Australia ! What a player ! Australia now faces England in the final on Sunday.

Earlier, Cameron White played a good hand to set it up for Hussey’s ferocious assault later. Australia get their first shot at T20 World Cup now. Let’s see what happens on Sunday ! But, whatever happens now, we have perhaps witnessed the greatest T20 Match of all times as Hussey score 60 of less than even 25 . Coming in at no.7 Hussey turned the game around single handedly . A tremendous display of character ! the last partnership totals 53 frm 16 balls .

Mike Hussey has been named as the Player of the Match. He says the win is one of the best feelings of his career
