The thrill of the last over – ball by ball
South Africa needed 51 runs to win in 12 balls. It seemed difficult to win from here. But after this Yanson's bat spoke. He scored 26 runs in the 19th over of Hardik Pandya with the help of 2 sixes and 3 fours. Now Africa needed 25 runs in the last over. The way Africa was batting. It seemed that the host team would chase. However then Arshdeep Singh showed his experience. Let us see ball by ball what happened in the last over.
- First ball- leg bye, 1 run
- Second ball- Marco Yanson's six
- Third ball- Arshdeep Singh dismissed Yanson LBW for 54 runs.
- Fourth ball- Andile Simelane hit a four
- Fifth ball- 1 run
- Sixth ball- 1 run
In this way, South Africa could score only 13 runs in the last over and lost the match by 11 runs.
