Just imagine if a team needs 61 runs in the last two overs to win and wins the match one ball before the end of the over. Austria vs Romania match was played on 14th July in European Cricket International T10. What was seen in this match will be recorded in the pages of history. In the match played in Bucharest, Romania scored 167 runs for the loss of two wickets in 10 overs, in reply Austria lost three wickets for 107 runs in 8 overs. Captain Aaqib Iqbal was playing after scoring 22 runs in 9 balls while Imran Asif was playing after scoring 14 runs in 9 balls. In this way Austria had to score 61 runs to win in the last two overs. What happened after this is difficult to believe. Manmeet Kohli came to bowl and conceded so many extra runs that a total of 41 runs were lost in the 9th over.
Kohli was able to complete the 9th over in just 10 balls and during this 41 runs were scored. Imran Asif took a single on the first ball, after this a four was hit on a wide ball, then a six on the next ball. In this way 12 runs were scored in two balls in this over. Another four on the next ball, then a six. After reaching this point Kohli completely lost his rhythm. The next ball was a no ball and a six was hit on this too.
Then a dot ball, then a six on a no ball, then an extra run on a wide ball and then a four on the last ball. Kohli’s over went like this 1, 5WD, 6, 4, 6, 7NB, 0, 7NB, 1WD, 4 and the score became 148 for 3 in 9 overs. The last over was bowled by Chamalka Fernando and he was also welcomed with a six, then after a single three consecutive sixes were hit and Austria won the match by scoring 173 runs for 3 wickets in 9.5 overs only.
