The final nail in the coffin!

With exactly three runs a ball required, Kohli had one final chance to wrestle his side back into the game. Once again over the wicket, he rolls his wrist in the final delivery stride in hope of some magic, but the ball never pitches, instead all the magic is accredited to the man in yellow wielding the long willow.

Morkel, not having the kind of day to miss out on a full toss, strikes it clean over cow corner into the top tier as everyone present, no matter belonging to which camp, is stunned into disbelief. Morkel has taken 28 runs off a single over to take his team into a winning position.

Although he got out in the next over, his 28 off 7 balls ensured that CSK did not have any further hiccups in chasing the total with Bravo and Jadeja taking them over the line in an adrenaline-heavy finish.

Thus became the legend of Albie Morkel picking his moments of heroism in an IPL career loaded with laurels and success.
