India’s most memorable moments from the 2007 T20 WC

#3 Sreesanth vs Hayden

Sreesanth dismissed Hayden just at the right time

If it was Yuvraj who led with the bat, it was Sreesanth’s turn with the ball. After losing two wickets for 68, Australia seemed to have found the momentum. Hayden and Symonds were smacking the Indian bowlers all over the park.

After the fall of second wicket, the Kangaroos had added 66 runs in six overs and were threatening to take the game away from India. Just when the nerves of India were being checked, Sreesanth bowled out Hayden with a beautiful delivery. The pacer ended with figures of 4-1-12-3.

The celebration that followed was of enough testimony to gauge the importance of that wicket. After the wicket of Hayden, Australia could never gain momentum as India won by a margin of 15 runs.
