This was the semi-final of the world T20 2010 between Australia and Pakistan. Pakistan batted first and scored a massive 191/6 in their 20 overs. Kamran Akmal scored 50 off 34 balls and his brother Umar Akmal made 56* from 35 balls to aid the cause of Pakistan.

Australia tried their best to chase the total down, but none of their batsmen made a big score, until it came to the last few overs. In the last 2 overs, Australia needed 34 runs and in the last over, it all came down to 18 runs. Saeed Ajmal had the ball and Mike Hussey was on strike. Ajmal had given away 23 runs in his 3 previous overs. Mitch Johnson gave Hussey the strike on the first ball.

After that Hussey got stuck into Ajmal, hitting him for 2 sixes off consecutive balls and then for a four. He finished the innings by hitting him for a six off the fifth ball, to stun Pakistan, who were the defending champions.
