Pakistan was winning the match when suddenly 3 quick wickets fell and Pakistan was on the verge of losing the match. It happened all very quickly. Almost everyone thought that the match was over. But it was Shahid Afridi who hit two consecutive sixes and won the match for Pakistan.

Earlier Pakistan won the toss and put India into bat. Indian start was not a good one as both their in-form batsmen Dhawan and Kohli went back to the pavilion early. Rohit Sharma played a brilliant innings of 56 runs from just 58 balls with 7 fours and 2 sixes to keep his team going. Rayudu and Jadeja towards the end played brilliantly to take India to a fighting total of 245/8 in allotted 50 overs.

Saeed Ajmal took 3 wickets for 40 runs in his allowed quota of 10 overs. Mohammad Talha debuted for Pakistan in this match and his figures were impressive. He took 2 wickets for just 22 runs in his 7 overs. It was quite strange that he did not go on to ball his ten overs.

Pakistan started the innings with openers putting on 71 runs partnership. Sharjeel Khan was the first to go on 25. Ahmed Shehzad followed him with 42 runs. At this crucial time Mohammad Hafeez anchored Pakistan innings and played a brilliant knock of 75 runs. Misbah ul Haq and Umar Akmal did not last long and Sohaib Maqsood and Shahid Afridi played good knocks to keep the score board ticking until the match suddenly changed.

On the score of 235 Umar Gul got out, Mohammad Talha got out when the score was 236 and Saeed Ajmal also got out when the score was 236. At this critical stage Pakistan was 9 down and 10 runs were required of 6 balls.

Junaid Khan did well to take a single and give strike back to Shahid Afridi, who hit two sixes to win the match for Pakistan and threw out India from the tournament.
